SPaG 괴물 길들이기: 철자, 구두점 및 문법 해결.

Having good grammar skills and understanding is important but all those terms and rules can seem complicated.

What if you’re not sure how to tell a simple sentence from a complex sentence, an adverb from an adverbial phrase (and is it fronted or not?), or an inverted comma from one that has the good sense to stay the right way up?

Don’t worry though, in this ongoing class we take a look at various aspects of SPaG and practice identifying and using them in an informal, confidence-building atmosphere. 

As this is an ongoing class, lessons do not ‘build’ on each other and learners may join at any point without needing to have attended other classes, or may ‘dip’ in and out to join for specific aspects of grammar if preferred.
Please note that not all three aspects of SPaG will be looked at in every lesson (in order to make sure students aren’t being rushed in the time allowed). Classes will usually cover one or two aspects during each lesson.

A schedule for the next few weeks will be regularly updated here.

Please note that although I am UK - based and use British spellings in the class, (in any notes I type or in slides, etc), any spelling rules covered in class are standard in English (e.g. changing ‘y’ endings to ‘ies’ endings for plurals, etc). I will, however, discuss any differences in UK/ Australian and American spellings as we come across them.
