“I enthusiastically recommend
Suzanne Roady-Ross as an instructor of writing
and business writing! She is one of our most
popular instructors. Her casual, yet enthusiastic,
style puts people [at] ease and contributes
to an engaging and valuable learning experience.”
—Employee Development Coordinator, City of
Anaheim
“I began the Write
It Right beginning class thinking, “Gosh—four
weeks of this?” and by [the end] of
the session I WANTED MORE! I have taken every
class that Ms. Roady-Ross has offered here
and found the content of her training sessions
to be extremely helpful in my correspondence.
The high energy and teaching style that [she]
brings to her trainings is sure to keep your
attention and make the lessons unforgettable.
I highly recommend these training courses
to anyone and everyone!”

Services
The Learning Curve offers a variety of programs
to enhance the writing and speaking skills
of your employees.
Whether
they need to begin from the most basic levels
of English, or are good writers who have trouble
developing ideas or matching their style to
their purpose, The Learning Curve offers a
full spectrum of courses. I
tailor workshops to suit customers’ needs: one-on-one
tutoring, small group, single-topic seminars,
and series of classes for groups of up to
twelve learners.
My strategy is to assess learners’ skill levels
so they can proceed from wherever they are to the
level of competency that their jobs require. All
courses include (optional) pre-and post-testing
to assure proper class placement, and to measure
participants’ improvement.
