Question

Write a substantial paragraph or two, with a topic sentence or mini-thesis, through which you respond to the students in this video as you learn how to navigate correct grammar. You might begin by identifying the moments that stand out to you the most. Which student videos seem to make the most sense to you? With whom do you agree? Disagree? What patterns do you find among the student sound bites? Which ideas were the most instructive or helpful to you? What surprised you? How have your own ideas about introductions and conclusions come into focus through the videos?

It’s easy to be intimidated by grammar, particularly when you receive a paper with a lot of errors marked on it. As the students in this Essentials video are aware, however, those corrections are really an opportunity, and they will be the key to making you a stronger writer.
