Perfecting Grammar and Style
$1,099.00

What is the most obvious sign that someone is not good at English? Grammar! An old lady needs to pee really badly, but is afraid to go into the restroom because the sign says, “Toilet is ONLY for disabled elderly pregnant children.” The old lady is not pregnant and no longer a child, though her full bladder does make walking around hard! A small comma can make a big difference. After 30 hours of class time, this course will prepare you to understand the parts of a sentence and how to add style to your writing. A big plus is that it also prepares you to write great essays for the ACT and SAT.
