Episode 003 - Academic writing: a few basic principles

Welcome to the LSE LIFE podcasts! I'm Helen Green, and I’ll be sharing some ideas on one aspect of studying at LSE. 

In this podcast, I’d like to talk about academic writing – specifically the nature of an essay, and how the act of writing is not only a means to producing a piece of work, but also a way to clarify your own understanding of a topic.
