Instructor: Hellwig | MW 12:20 PM – 01:15 PM Hybrid on Friday

This course helps students improve their command of English grammar in order to become more knowledgeable about their language, more accomplished speakers, and more effective writers. In this course, we reconsider definitions of grammar and focus on grammatical structures from the simple to the complex, ultimately examining grammar as the engine of expression and communication. Far beyond the “grammar police” and the memorization of technical terms, this course explores grammar in accessible ways as lively rhetorical action.
