    I've found my spelling and grammar has improved since I've started taking the trouble to proof read my e-mails. Takes less than a minute but it really has improved things.

    Having a mobile phone with predictive text has helped to. It's faster to write properly than it is to do 'text speak'.

  22. Re:Oh, no... on Students Failing Because of Poor Grammar · · Score: 1

    I'm from the UK. Maybe it was some trendy new teaching but I don't ever remember being taught grammar at school, except in foreign language classes. My dad was the one who told me the correct use of the apostrophe.
