QEC (Quick English Compositions) helps learners understand and practice English composition skills. Focusing on one essay type at a time, QEC can help you write better quickly, with many example patterns, focusing on the sentence level. QEC includes over 20 essay types and covers a wide range of essay topics. Guidelines help learners while writing. Obtain skills faster and more conveniently than ever. Improve your writing through many examples and an applied emphasis for ESL (English as a Second Language), EFL (English as a Foreign Language), and ESP (English for Specific Purposes) international students.
