About Us
The JST Academic Writing Program offers academic writing coaching and writing workshops to all degree-seeking JST students. We provide one-to-one coaching services on a variety of topics, such as argumentation, constructing a thesis statement, using sources, methodology, and academic theology. We use a progressive model of coaching that moves from higher order skills, such as academic argumentation, to lower order skills, such as grammar and syntax. Above all, we tailor our coaching to individual student needs.
