Since I started taking Dr. Venkat’s course on Foundational Skills on Employability and Earning, I have surprised myself with a disciplined routine that has been shaped by the detailed structure of the lessons, the rigorous teaching (through videos and one-on-one mentoring) and his encouragement to stay on track. These lessons have helped me in paying greater attention to the exercises on reading and editing. It’s amazing how Dr. Venkat has accumulated years of knowledge into a meticulous course structure that has benefitted me, and will continue to benefit many more students! I strongly recommend these courses to anyone who wishes to work in the field of editing and is sincere about learning.

This training so far has made me realize the importance of understanding a sentence. This understanding comes from learning how to read—yes, this is the fundamental aspect. By learning how to read and improving upon it with every mentoring session, I am able to know where exactly to punctuate, where to modify, and where to leave alone something. This has been such a revelation!
