About

Do you find grammar and mechanics rules particularly challenging or annoying? This four-lesson series is designed to help you master the Standard English Conventions portion of the SAT. In each session, you'll work with me and a small group of dedicated learners to practice questions, complete practice tests, and improve your grammar skills.

Day 1:
- periods, semicolons, comma + fanboys
- colons
Day 2:
- dashes, appositives, comma + dependent clauses
- name + title
Day 3:
- pronouns, verb-tenses
- apostrophes (possessive)
Day 4:
- dangling modifiers
- review and extra practice


*** Prior knowledge is strongly encouraged, as we will be focusing on medium and hard questions ***
