Parts of Speech
Knowing the parts of speech, using them correctly, and understanding how they
relate to one another is an important early step in creating strong writing skills.
From nouns and verbs to prepositions and conjunctions, each part of speech
plays a key role in sentence structure and clarity of thought.

Subject-Verb Agreement
The question of subject-verb agreement highlights a writer’s need to make sentences
clear and understandable. Having plural subjects with singular verbs, or the reverse,
results in nobody being quite sure who is doing what. This becomes particularly
important when long phrases separate the subject from the verb. Learning about and
understanding subject-verb agreement helps writers create clear sentences that the
reader will understand. Time4Writing’s free resources teach students the basic rules as
well as some of the trickier aspects of subject-verb agreement. Our 8-week online
writing courses provide more in-depth practice and one-on-one instruction by a
certified teacher, and are designed to help students improve their writing skills,
regardless of academic grade or proficiency level.

Capitalization
In a world of lowercase texting, learning proper capitalization takes on a whole new
meaning. From learning to distinguish between “capitonyms” (a turkey in Turkey, a
march in March) to learning the basic rules of capitalization, students have much to gain
from mastering this area of writing mechanics. ...

Punctuation
Punctuation marks are signposts used by writers to give directions to their readers
about which way a sentence is going. Using punctuation properly is one of the most
crucial elements in making the meaning of the sentence absolutely clear. Take our
favorite example: “Let’s eat Grandma!” becomes considerably less worrisome when a
single comma is added … “Let’s eat, Grandma!”

Homophones, Homonyms,
Homographs
Some of the most interesting words in English are homophones, homonyms, and
homographs. However, intrigue can quickly give way to confusion when dealing with
sound-alikes and look-alikes! Learning the distinction between identical spellings with
two different pronunciations or two different spellings with identical pronunciation is not
just confusing, but potentially frustrating. Still, with the proper approach, students can
learn to appreciate homophones, homonyms, and homographs. Time4Writing’s free
resources cover the wild world of homophones, homonyms, and homographs. Designed
to help students improve their writing skills, regardless of academic grade or proficiency
level, Time4Writing’s 8-week courses provide more in-depth practice and one-on-one
instruction by a certified teacher.
