Testimonials

"June breaks down abstract grammatical concepts into practical elements. She leaves you with confidence." -- Rebecca Bernard "This class is a quick, concise refresher. Knowing the answer, rather than guessing, is going to save so much time!" -- Cynthia Collins "I left feeling informed and empowered. The class distinguished writing styles, covered common gramatical errors, and pointed me toward other great resources. I'll never feel intimidated by grammar again." -- Carrie M. Hunter "June was extraordinary. Her class was helpful, well-organized, and took the fear out of grammer. I don't think I'll ever look at a dictionary in quite the same way." -- Margot Black "June made a dry topic interesting and engaging. I was surprised at how much I learned, and how easy she made it to remember." -- Laurie Young "June was a wonderful teacher. She explained grammar in a precise and easy-to-understand manner. I highly recommend her." -- Nicholas Coles "June was very thorough and kept things moving. She is affable, knowledgeable, and encourages both questions and comments." -- Jeremy Vernon "June's class was quick, witty, and surprisingly painless. She covers pretty much everything about grammar, style, and punctuation." -- Deborah Brennan
