In this class, you'll learn all the grammar skills that you need to know for college, and you’ll be able to tackle almost any sentence like a pro. The beginning of the class will focus on parts of speech, from the simple “verb - it’s what you do” to the indirect object. You’ll learn how to analyze a sentence through diagramming. I bet you didn't expect that you would learn grammar by drawing rocket ships and an Amazon Jungle bug!
