Guide Review - Grammar Smart
Grammar is not a fun subject to study. There are lots of confusing rules and an endless amount of terminology to memorize. If you struggle with grammar, Grammar Smart is exactly what you need.Part of the popular "smart" series created by The Princeton Review, Grammar Smart offers a different approach to learning how grammar works. This comprehensive guide teaches the "nuts and bolts" of English. By the time you finish the book, you will know how a correct sentence should be devised.
Some of the positive attributes of Grammar Smart include a breakdown of different parts of speech, tips on how to avoid grammar mistakes, and question/answer reviews.
I would highly recommend Grammar Smart to anyone who needs an English refresher or to anyone who is preparing to take a standardized test like the SAT.
