Knowing how to use these in your spellings will help you get your point across, will stop you getting confused and angry with spelling and yourself. Emails, and social media have all made writing important again, and it's a shame if you can't express yourself properly in these, or you spend so long trying to spell or figure out how to use an apostrophe, or not, that you give up. Knowing these will help you so much and make your writing look professional and not sloppy, or like you don't care. It's a video based course with additional PDF worksheets for revision, and exercises and spelling tests in the Resources too.
