Description: In this engaging class, Prof. Stuart Teicher explores “the words that cause chaos” – phrases and habits that undermine clarity and weaken your message. By identifying and eliminating these troublemakers, you’ll discover how to write with precision, power, and purpose.
At the heart of the class is plain English writing – because clear communication not only boosts your effectiveness but also advances access to justice by making the law more understandable for everyone. Through a mix of lively lecture and hands-on exercises, you’ll gain practical tools to sharpen your writing, strengthen your voice, and ensure your message truly resonates.
