If you find yourself questioning your grammar or punctuation, this class is a great refresher!

The business writing class taught me so much. Grace is knowledgeable and patient. I can't say I have had a professor like her. She's awesome!

I liked following along with the manual, and also how the class was interactive, instead of only instructional. Grace was very sweet and personable. She was patient with our responses and good at explaining the correct answers. I look forward to signing up for more classes with her.

If ever you were unsure of how to effectively write for business purposes, this course will show you the way.

The Grammar and Advanced Business Writing course will take your English writing skills to the next level, wherever you start. The content is very thorough and adapts to the various levels I have seen in other participants in the class. I believe my writing skills were already at an advanced level and I have still improved a lot. My instructor Grace Hochheiser was fantastic, very punctual, and sharp on following the material, yet able to adapt to each student and provide individual guidance. She is also good at establishing rapport and creating a great learning environment.

Grace was so thorough and provided meaningful activities, examples, and interactive discussion. Grace elevated the course with the class and discussion dynamics. She engaged all student attendees and was an active listener when it came to our Business Writing needs. It was a pleasure to have her as our instructor. I will recommend this course to my colleagues!

Great course to take as a refresher on business grammar.

This is a great class for people who would like to enhance their writing technique.

Great class for reviewing the fundamentals of effective communication.

Grace is a knowledgeable, engaging, and enthusiastic instructor. Having taken the business writing course with her previously, I looked forward to my grammar essentials course with her! Her energy is immense, despite coming through a Zoom screen, and this helps carry you through the course. Grammar can be a boring and difficult subject, but Grace gives you positive feedback and encourages you to improve on the next in-class activity. In the two courses I have taken with Grace, she has been professional and polite to her students.

The course was a good refresher on the importance of effective writing...beyond stating our purpose in communications we need to be polite, positive, and concise. Often, we are rushed in the day-to-day when clearing our inboxes. Going forward I will be more mindful in my writing - this is be valuable to my team and my effectiveness in dealing with executive leaders.

The class was a great reminder of many things forgotten from school. Now i can feel a little bit more comfortable about my writing.

Excellent! Worth every minute for people who want to improve their writing skills.

This is a great course, and it is so helpful for someone transitioning from teaching to a corporate role.

I highly recommend this Grammar Essentials class to anyone; you can always learn something new. It's amazing to observe how grammar has evolved over time compared to how it is viewed today.

This class was well worth the time and money spent. It was both a refresher course and an advanced English class, only simplified. This was indeed the best person to teach this course. I would highly recommend this class to both beginners and advanced individuals wanting to improve their command of writing.

It's worth taking the Grammar Essentials course. Grace knows her material and explains it well when we are uncertain. It is a lot to cover in a short period of time, but she manages to do it.

Grace is everything you want in an instructor. In any class she is teaching you can be certain you will learn meaningful, relevant information.

Great class for many professions. Great for brushing up on writing skills for a variety of situations.

It's fun and interactive, not boring.

The instructor was great and I was able to clear up words that are used incorrectly in my writing.

Effective Business Writing was engaging, clear, and concise. I am glad I took the course.

Before taking a Business Writing class, I was scared to leave reviews. Now, I am screaming praise and joy thanks to Grace.

Grace is an enthusiastic, genuine and knowledgeable instructor. She takes the time to go through multiple writing examples and actively engage with her students. Her energy helps carry you through the course, with encouragements to keep you motivated on each class writing activity. She gives you quick feedback so you can immediately improve on the next activity. Hope to take more courses with Grace!

Effective Business Writing was a great interactive course. Extremely informative.

I was concerned the class would not be tailored to my skill level or needs. I was greatly surprised. The class offered a modern approach to writing with clarity and brevity. Thank you, Grace.

Would recommend to anyone who spends time writing either email or letters

Grace is a nice, patient instructor for Grammar Essentials and I really enjoy taking courses at Career Centers.


Eskolta

I'd recommend Effective Business Writing to just about anyone as the content is so rich and valuable, especially in today's fast paced and increasingly informal communication landscape. Grace is a wonderfully outgoing, thorough, and engaging instructor.


Liquidnet Holdings, Inc.

As a vice president, I lead a team of individuals that are tasked with writing on so many levels. This will be a mandatory for future team onboarding. As a professional I will apply the learning in future presentations and communications. Time and money well spent, highly encouraged for all leadership levels and industries.

Business Writing Classes in NYC

Imagine winning every proposal you write, getting an interview for every cover letter you send, and securing new clients with cold emails alone. With effective business writing, you can do all of the above and more. Although most companies rely on technology to complete their work, communication skills, including the ability to write persuasively and convey ideas with clarity and brevity, are equally important.

At Career Centers, our business writing bootcamps and classes develop your writing skills by focusing on the following topics:

  • Organizing ideas
  • Writing persuasive arguments
  • Using diplomacy and tact

Writing business emails affects your bottom line. With the increasing reliance on remote systems like email for customer service and business proposals, it’s never been more important to write effectively. One email can turn a disgruntled client into your biggest fan. 

In addition to skill with writing, knowing your audience is also a must. A company memo explaining a new office policy and a pitch deck for a potential customer require two distinct writing styles. After taking our business writing bootcamp, you’ll be prepared to shift your writing style to suit different situations.

Business Writing Training in New York City 

Grammar Essentials

Although we’ve made significant technological strides, even the best spell check programs miss substantial errors. As a professional, your writing reflects your competence, intelligence, and professionalism. Just one grammar mistake—a typo, misused word, or poor sentence structure can turn off a potential client or elicit doubt in a steady customer. 

On the other hand, polished writing increases a client’s confidence and engagement with your business. After taking the Grammar Essentials Course at Career Centers, you will be able to edit your documents with eagle-eye attention-to-detail. Students in the Grammar Essentials course will discover the most common grammar errors, learn how to determine the appropriate form of a word, and write effectively for various professional audiences.

By the end of the course, students will have the skills to be their own spell check.

Business Writing 1

In our level one course, Effective Business Writing, you’ll improve in all aspects of writing from the initial idea to the final report. We’ll begin with an overview of the essential writing skills, including audience, structure, and word choice. By the end of the course, you’ll know the most common styles of writing used in the professional sector.

Given that writing has evolved in the digital age, electronic communication, including emails, texts, and chat messages are also covered in the course. We’ll review appropriate writing styles to deliver good, bad, and neutral news, like announcements. By the end of the course, you’ll have proposals and letters to add to your portfolio.

Business Writing 2

The Business Writing level two or advanced course explores more complicated documents. We’ll review how to outline and format papers, including timelines, pitches, and service agreements. In the advanced course, you’ll learn everything you need to know about writing for business.

The Advanced Business Writing course culminates in a final project—creating a professional document using the process learned in class. You will choose your audience, write an outline, and use appropriate delivery techniques to inform or persuade your readers. By the end of the course, you will have a portfolio of writing samples for prospective employers and have experience writing documents you’ll need on the job. 

Save on your enrollment, when you sign up for Business Writing Bootcamp, which includes Grammar Essentials, Effective Business Writing, and Advanced Business Writing.
