Course Description

Hi. I'm Luke!

Do you often feel frustrated when writing English emails because you can’t express exactly what you mean? Or maybe your work emails occasionally cause misunderstandings or awkward situations.


I get it.


It is a common issue that many English learners have. The fact is, an email is often the first impression someone has of you. The way you write has a big impact on how people feel about you. The good news is that learning to write clear and impactful English emails is not as hard as you might think.

In this course, you will improve your English email writing skills, whether you need to write emails to a colleague or a friend, whether you need to be formal or casual, whether you are writing to someone you don’t know or someone you’ve known for years--you will be able to handle anything. The key will be looking at examples of clearly-written emails in real-life situations. For each email, we will explore a scenario and go through the example in detail, pulling out methods, tips, structures, idioms, phrases, grammar, and vocabulary. We will also discuss more complex things, like creating the right tone, ensuring the correct level of formality, communicating ideas effectively, and much more.

Of course, it will be crucial to practice what you learn. Each example we look at will be provided in PDFs so that you can use them as templates for your emails. Put what you learn into practice, and you will see the results.


Some of the specific things you will learn in this course:

  • Using tone to fit the purpose of your email and write with impact

  • Building a structure to ensure clarity and avoid misunderstandings

  • Reducing errors that may lead to negative judgment and missed opportunities

  • Words and phrases to stand out from the crowd and get your point across

  • English grammar for communicating ideas effectively

  • The most common salutations, greetings, subject headings

  • Business English email norms, etiquette, and faux pas

You’ll also learn:

  • How to open and close an email to give the right first and last impression

  • How to make requests, inquiries, and even more direct demands

  • How to clarify misunderstandings, resolve conflicts, and apologize

  • How to write an impactful cover letter and resume to a potential employer

  • How to push someone without making them uncomfortable

  • Much more!

Too lengthy and too much explanations for simple things

By Aditya Pimparkar on 6/27/2024

I wanted some professional email examples to go through. Because, I have recently found that I am being too direct and not professional, while writing emails.

By Kellene D Rochioli on 10/5/2023

This is the exact subject matter I was looking for in a course. Instructor is clear and easy to understand. Lots of attention to detail.

This is a wonderful course, so far I have learnt structures and techniques that are very useful in my new job as a member of the Email team at our company support center. It's something I never knew I needed but so happy I have it.

By Latifah Alkhofi on 7/10/2023

i like the way the course was taught, and the speed was good not too fast for an English learner. i like as well the structure of the lessons and files. i suggest that the Recap summery points should be included in the PDF file in the resources.

By Shivam Singh on 8/7/2022

The course gives you an idea of what will best suit an email based on the scenario. It tells you to start and close an email with the proper lines to be used.

By Kalpana Natarajan on 8/4/2022

By Saddam Hussein Said on 2/21/2022
