First Things First

Welcome to Grammar Workshop!


We are going to learn everything we need to know in order to become more aware of those language problems commonly found in your writing, focusing more on error analysis rather than on a comprehensive study of grammar.

To start with this blog, please answer the following questions:
  1. Which grammar errors do you most commonly make when you write?
  2. Which grammar errors do you most commonly make when you speak?
  3. Write a 250-word paragraph about the importance of having excellent grammar skills when writing and speaking. You can mention ways to reduce errors and improve your writing, being more skilled at editing it, until you grow completely confident at it.
Remember that opinions cannot be exactly the same and every question must be completely answered in order to get the points. (The minimum number of words in the paragraph is particularly important.)

Deadline: Wed., September 12th, at 11:59pm.
