One of your international colleagues would like to share some information and personal experience, which could be of interest for young researches in Dresden.

Weiterbildung Zentrum at TU offers a series of courses "Academic Writing", "Teaching in English" and "Presentation" by Mrs. Mannion, a native-speaker of English who has lived in Germany for 25 years and holds a Master in Interpreting and Translating.

"I've just attended the first course of the series, "Writing", and was flabbergasted by professionalism of the trainer, therefore I want to pass the course information around. This course explores subtleties of language and style,
confusing cases of word usage, inner structure of a paper, English punctuation, etc. It  is oriented on young scientists and teachers who already have some experience in writing and presenting in English. I believe that this target
audience is so far not broadly covered in Dresden, since the majority of courses propose help to PhD's in writing their thesis." 

The forthcoming Teaching course will tackle the differencies in evaluation and grading in Germany and Anglo-Saxon world, how to reason and analyze while conveying a message to students, how to assess the audience's response. For further information please follow this link.

Such a course would also be helpful for those German young lecturers who have mixed audiences and wonder how do they get a message accross in the most efficient way. There are still places available, so one can register on the webpage. The fee is charged, but TU-associated people get reductions.
