One way to get many suggestions is to go to Collegeboard.com (AP Central) and look at AP English Language and Composition.  The class is focused on the teaching of writing and many educators contribute to the AP Central web site.  If you are a teacher, you can sign up (free) for an account that will give you access to all of the information.\nIf you wish to use a text not tied to English literature, The Brief Bedford Reader (Bedford St. Martins pub.) contains many prose, non-fiction essays as examples and good chapter discussions of 8-10 types of essays as well as student-written models.  I've used this text in both high schools and English 1A (college).  It's quite effective.\nFinally, the Online Writing Lab at Purdue.edu has wonderful resources both in style and mechanics.

what about thinking, analysing and writing it yourself?\ncause: copy paste an essay from internet\nEffect: no learning experience!

I would also say coursework. That way you can track writing ability and communication skills. Those are skills which will carry over into real life.

Your best option would be a degree in Communications or Journalism.  Look for a four-year program from an accredited university, preferably one that will offer you a Co-op placement (where you work and get paid at a real magazine during the summer).  You'll also want to look for opportunities to showcase your writing skills, from writing for the local newspaper to publishing an intelligent blog.

For individual online courses, I like LearningLinks, through Northwestern University, EPGY (math and science, through Stanford), and the online courses from Duke TIP (at Duke, run by Duke) and CTY (run by Johns Hopkins.) They're only individual courses, though, and most are for grades  6 and up.

In fifth grade, students should be able to:\n\nFree write or journal write at least a page in one sitting.\n\nThey should understand specific areas of grammer, such as subject/predicate, possessive nouns, and plural language.\n\nStudent can go through all the stages of the writing process, which are prewrite, rough draft, and final copy. \n\nStudents can write personal, explorative, and persuasive essays.\n\n\nI hope this helps!

THE POWER COURSE is a course in business writing. Few people enjoy English courses, but the guy who can write has a skill everybody wants. You'll see when you get into the workforce. If you don't have a complete command of the language, there are a million things they won't let you get involved in. They might even replace you. My advice is even if you don't like English courses, find one that stresses writing and make yourself take at least two of these courses. You'll be glad you did.

Go take a course at your at a college, alot of colleges offer business writing courses, etc... Or even a local tech prep school may offer free courses. Even a local employment office would probably offer courses.
