Building the Body Paragraph Taking an English course can help not only in other courses. It can help in all other areas, especially in business writing where it is important in all correspondence / emails (including attachments such as letters and memos) and white papers. Certainly, any student who has not taken an English course will almost inevitably notice that their grades are not as good as course graduates. Both effective academic and business writing encourages simplicity and conciseness to get the point of the piece across. Reading, thinking and writing skills that were learned in the university...
