Everyone ‘knows’ grammar: they use it instinctively every time they speak or write. But from the 1970s until recently, grammar was no longer formally taught in most Australian schools, and as a result, many people struggle to understand how the language works.
A knowledge of grammar can help you manage the mechanics and nuances of writing. So, whether you write creatively or as part of a business or technical role, understanding the basics of grammar will give you confidence as a writer.
Don’t be daunted by those mysterious terms ‘subject’ ‘object’ ‘verb’ ‘active/passive voice’, and ‘semi-colon’. The concepts are easy to grasp when presented through real-life examples, and you will gain a powerful tool for organising your words and sentences.
This one-day workshop with author and editor Susan McKerihan introduces the fundamental elements of grammar and explains how they work in real life.
