Seeing the Pattern & Commonsense Guide to Grammar and Usage 4e

A learning and reading specialist with over 30 years of experience, Kathleen T. McWhorter applies her knowledge of how students read and understand texts to Seeing the Pattern, a unique new rhetorically arranged reader that offers more help for students than any other reader. Building on proven features from her widely adopted composition text Successful College Writing, McWhorter has developed innovative techniques to strengthen students' reading and writing skills and help them see the rhetorical patterns and then use them in their own writing. The result is a visually oriented rhetorical reader that improves upon the genre by offering underprepared students the extra help they need to achieve success in their college-level writing.
