Essential preparation for the new SAT Writing and Grammar Section.

 

Homework Helpers: English Language & Composition is a user-friendly review book that will make any student—or those trying to help them—feel like he or she has a private tutor. Each chapter includes detailed questions that allow students to assess how well they’ve mastered each idea. Not only does the author provide the right answers to these self-study questions, but also detailed explanations of why the wrong answers are wrong.

 

When is a comma used? Why are some titles capitalized? How are dangling modifiers prevented? There are hundreds of grammatical and compositional rules, many of them difficult to understand and memorize. And just as many exceptions to the rules!

 

Homework Helpers: English Language and Composition focuses on all aspects of writing, with clear lessons and exercises on:

• Parts of speech

• Punctuation

• Tone

• The writing process

• Types of sentences

• Types of essays

• Revisions

• Common errors to avoid

 

Students from high school through college will find this book to be an essential writing tool. Younger students can follow the lessons from beginning to end to learn everything they need to know about language and composition. The more experienced student can pick and choose lessons and exercises according to need—especially if they’re facing the new SAT. 
 

The Homework Helpers Series is just what students need to boost their confidence and give them the help they need to ace even the most challenging classes and tests.

I went back to college at age 55. I was initially concerned with my writing ability and purchased this book as a guide for language, grammar, and composition. It was extremely helpful although the practice pages were not useful and appeared geared more toward English as a second language. The format was easy to follow and the topics inclusive and thorough.

I went back to school at 50 and needed this because I'm not sitting through "freshman" English again! It's a terrific primer, moves along briskly but does not leave anything important out (that I could see.) Recommend.

I bought this book for my employees to help them write technical documents. Although, these employees are native english speakers, the book is of great help. I bought a second copy to help my 4th grader advance in English grammar.
