Seminars: Taming the Wild Grammar Beastie
Taming
the Wild Grammar Beastie presents up-to-date solutions to the most
prevalent grammar problems found in corporate America today. This fun,
fast-paced seminar is for everyone who wants to brush up on grammar skills-from
entry-level employees to senior management.
Never waste time again by asking, "Have I said it correctly? Is it 'who' or 'whom'? Should I place a comma here?" The workshop teaches standard American usage for the kinds of problems people most often experience with punctuation, grammar, and proofreading and clear sentence construction.
