    What type of composition course are you wanting?

    I'll tell you what, you find a free online english composition course that you're interested in and let me know, I'll take it with you.

    I teach a course in grammar online, everyone learns what not to do.

    How about a course at your local community college? They have online classes these days.

    Edit:

    I should read better before posting!

    What part of "free" don't I understand? lol


    Look into MPTC or MATC around here if you can't anything decent that is free. They should have cheap on-line courses.

    Peak, I know we have some teachers on here that would probably help you out with your writing. Maybe you could send them some of your writing samples and/or "finished' documents for proofreading. Just a thought.
