From apostrophes to hyphens - an intermediate course to understand and master the tricky punctuation marks in spellings
From the creator of Udemy's popular Spelling Rules: to improve spelling & confidence, comes the perfect follow-on course - How to Punctuate Spelling: to improve spelling & writing to give you even more spelling knowledge and confidence to spell, write and get your meaning across.
This course is for anyone who needs to understand and "master" the tricky punctuation marks we put in spellings, especially apostrophes (you're, I'm, Joanne's course) and hyphens (good-looking, a 3-year-old, sister-in-law). You'll also learn how to punctuate abbreviations (CD/CDs, Dr./Dr, gym), when to use capital letters (I've, Samsung, Harry Potter), and how to write dates, and time, and much more.
This is ideal for both American & British English users.
Knowing how to use these in your spellings will help you get your point across, will stop you getting confused and angry with spelling and yourself. Emails, and social media have all made writing important again, and it's a shame if you can't express yourself properly in these, or you spend so long trying to spell or figure out how to use an apostrophe, or not, that you give up. Knowing these will help you so much and make your writing look professional and not sloppy, or like you don't care.
It's a video based course with additional PDF worksheets for revision, and exercises and spelling tests in the Resources too.
