How often do you find yourself trying to figure out the quirks of English punctuation? Things like: does 'its' need an apostrophe or not, should it be 'mum' or 'Mum', is it '2' or 'two', and that kind of thing.

After more than a couple of decades writing (and believe me more time than I care to admit trying to figure out what goes where), I’ve come up with a few tips to make the whole thing easier. Tips I’m delighted to share in this course.

So whether you’re learning English, learning punctuation or just fed up of asking yourself ‘Where?’ This short course is for you.

It covers the basics on some of the most annoying, everyday parts of our punctuation and ways to get them right first time.

Plus, at the end of the course I’ve included a short multiple choice quiz to reinforce everything you’ve learned.

PLUS, I’ve also created these Pack of Prompts especially to back up all you learn in this course.
