Part Four: Grrrr-ammar!
Grammar is definitely not the most favourite area of any language. Rules, exceptions, mistakes, errors, never ending corrections by teachers… simply discouraging. However, the grammar used in academic writing is not so difficult. Basically, if you are in an academic writing class, your level of English should enable you to deal with what you need to do. However, in this section you can find a review of some basic grammar issues that are necessary for correct writing. If you feel that it is not enough for you and you need more, find a grammar book and/or online resources to practise.
Remember, grammarphobia is treatable — the best cure for it is motivation. In this case, the motivation could be
“I’m bright enough to learn it.”
