To download the PDF is just $4, which I think is reasonable considering the original price of the correction was $25 (or in the case of some of the older essays I corrected, $10).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The essay that the student submitted to me was in response to this question:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Increasingly, the western world has been outsourcing its labour-related jobs to cheaper alternatives available in less-developed countries. Although this creates opportunities for people in poorer nations, it is a policy that is criticized by many in the west.  Write an essay response supporting the case for the outsourcing of labour related jobs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By purchasing the file available for download, you will receive:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;The essay as originally written by the student&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;My &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;corrections&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;comments&lt;/span&gt; on the students writing (written in red and blue)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;A polished version of the essay written by me&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;My hope is that you may garner some benefit through analyzing the learning process of others.  At the top of this post you can see a quick screenshot of the document you will get after submitting $4 to my PayPal account (please click the image for a closer look).  It is 4 pages long (5 with cover page).  After payment, the document will be instantly sent to your email.&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://easypay.juzaz.com/buy.php?id=88" target="_blank" title="Pay with Paypal through Juzaz EasyPay"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_buynow_LG.gif" alt="Pay with Paypal through Juzaz EasyPay" border="none" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;(Click '&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;BUY NOW&lt;/span&gt;' to purchase &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Essay correction #1&lt;/span&gt;.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7066207895073770859-2266133262254708675?l=ielts-essay-writing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ielts-essay-writing.blogspot.com/feeds/2266133262254708675/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ielts-essay-writing.blogspot.com/2010/05/essay-correction-1.html#comment-form' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7066207895073770859/posts/default/2266133262254708675'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7066207895073770859/posts/default/2266133262254708675'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ielts-essay-writing.blogspot.com/2010/05/essay-correction-1.html' title='Essay correction #1'/><author><name>EnglishRyan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02792403958130550301</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_UkONsd1t_8E/R-_OxIA7gDI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/ZgYZ_nvNlgU/S220/ryanlogo.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UkONsd1t_8E/S_4SauyBUrI/AAAAAAAAAF4/wtg3LC5Mo3Q/s72-c/screenshot.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7066207895073770859.post-8629268590524450651</id><published>2010-05-26T23:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-26T23:14:26.615-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Is my online course price too high?</title><content type='html'>Hi everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you know, I recently increased the price of my online written course from $30 USD to $75 USD as I was receiving more work than I could comfortably handle.  Since doing this, I have received numerous emails requesting/complaining that the new price is too high and that it is not in keeping with my policy to make high quality IELTS instruction available to everyone (either free or at a nominal fee).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus is the dilemma.  How can I make essay correction available to everyone without drowning myself in work?  The answer came from one of my online students.  They suggested I make the corrections I do for other online students available from my website and blog.  So I am pleased to introduce to you new downloads that will be made available from this website.  Each download will include 3 things: the original essay as it was submitted to me by the student, the comments and corrections I made to their essay and a polished version of the essay response written by me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope analyzing the learning process of others will help some of you to also improve.  Each download is only $4, which is much lower than the $25 I charge for personal correction.  The first in this series will be uploaded shortly and I will place a link from this blog and from my website, www.englishryan.com.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good luck,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ryan&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7066207895073770859-8629268590524450651?l=ielts-essay-writing.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ielts-essay-writing.blogspot.com/feeds/8629268590524450651/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ielts-essay-writing.blogspot.com/2010/05/is-my-online-course-price-too-high.html#comment-form' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7066207895073770859/posts/default/8629268590524450651'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7066207895073770859/posts/default/8629268590524450651'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ielts-essay-writing.blogspot.com/2010/05/is-my-online-course-price-too-high.html' title='Is my online course price too high?'/><author><name>EnglishRyan</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02792403958130550301</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_UkONsd1t_8E/R-_OxIA7gDI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/ZgYZ_nvNlgU/S220/ryanlogo.JPG'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry></feed>
