2nd Language Grammar Training

The Grammar Survival Guide – For second-language English speakers

There are two types of people who are commonly flummoxed by English grammar: those who don’t or didn’t speak English at home and those who were schooled some time ago and have either forgotten some of the rules or are confused by rules that have changed, inexplicably, since then. This course is ideal for both. It starts at the very beginning and moves through parts of speech to basic sentence structure and back again, covering all of the possible trip-ups and sharing tools and techniques to avoid these. It’s the perfect solution for upping grammatical standards.
