Short description: Why do some sentences work, while others don’t? In this course, we’ll discover the basics and the nuances of how to write well, and we’ll look at how “grammar” rules took hold in the first place. Goal: to have more confidence, understanding, practice, and fun in our use of English – and to know when “breaking the rules” is the way to go.
