Welcome to Grammar Workshop!

This is a very demanding and intensive course. You should therefore make every effort to come to every session as well as complete the assigned homework. Do not assume that you will be able to pass this course easily just because you have done English at secondary school. You will need to invest the time and work very hard to ensure that you pass the course. As future teachers, you must have a very, very good command of the English language. This course is a revision and a test of your knowledge. The pace here is extremely fast and you will need to work on your own to catch up if you find you are struggling.
