"How do I learn grammar quickly with the least amount of pain?"

With these video English grammar lessons, I'll teach you the fundamentals of grammar in under three hours! That's pretty quick. (I also promise that I'll make it easy on you.)

I like that this course clearly covers the basics.

Too many grammar books go into so much detail that they confuse students before the students have mastered the basics.

I Used to Hate Grammar...

I'm pretty chipper about grammar these days, but that wasn't always the case.

In grade school, junior high, and high school, grammar was presented to me as a mess of confused ideas. Teachers were "teaching" me about gerunds, and I had no idea what nouns were.

I worked hard, but I was left in a constant state of confusion. I left high school thinking that grammar was inaccessible to me.

During college, I had to take a grammar class, which I was not looking forward to. I was actually secretly dreading the class.

But, the class turned out to be amazing!

Because of the logical presentation of the material and the visual sentence diagrams that we studied (I'm a visual learner), I was able to earn a great grade and, more importantly, understand grammar. (Hooray!)

By the end of the semester, I was enjoying grammar and relishing the pride that comes with conquering a worthy adversary. (My worthy adversary was grammar.)

My son and I began watching the videos and doing the work in the workbook yesterday. We have already gained a much better understanding of English grammar than we had all year.
My son has Aspergers, ADHD, and vision processing challenges. It can be VERY difficult and costly to find materials that work for him.
I have spent two years trying to find a solution to our grammar class that would not bore me to tears. If I am bored, I will not be able to teach my son.
Last night, I literally hated to leave the computer because of your materials, Elizabeth. :-) Thanks again so much for creating this material. We are even going to have a grammar lesson on Saturday!

By the way, I hated English grammar, and you have made even ME love it.

How Did I Learn Grammar?

1. I learned the eight parts of speech.

The English language has thousands of words that can be made into an unlimited number of sentences.

Grammar is the set of rules for properly constructing every one of them.

The key to start understanding grammar is learning that there are only eight parts of speech and that all words can be organized into those eight groups.

You don't have to know a billion things; you just have to know these eight categories.

2. I learned how to diagram sentences.

Sentence diagrams illustrate how all of the parts of a sentence are related.

While diagramming, I was constantly reviewing the eight parts of speech and learning about sentence structure.

Oh, and I even enjoyed it. Diagramming sentences is like solving a word puzzle. I got to learn grammar and solve puzzles at the same time!

I'm not the only one who loves diagramming sentences. I've used sentence diagramming with my students, and they loved it as well.

This video course teaches you the same critical information that helped me understand grammar for the first time in my life.
