Well now that we have learnt to spell correctly and started learning about how to start writing academically, I have researched some videos to learn from. So far I have found 3 videos that are important to learn about academic writing. First of all I like to make sure that my learners are secured with good material to learn and understand properly what I have introduced before which is Basic English Grammar and Spellings.
Also while researching I found an interesting difficulty that people come across in academic writing. This difficulty is when to use ‘you’re’ and ‘your’. These are common difficulties everyone faces at one point and if you are still not sure which word is used when, the video is just a click away. These are referred casually as confusing words. I even mentioned in my older posts that I still get confused between its, it’s and its’. This is all connected to Punctuations.
Punctuation is a set of symbols used in writing to help indicate something about the structure of sentences, or to assist readers in knowing when to change the rhythm or the stress of their speaking (What is Punctuation? 2003).
