How to Write for Class: A Student's Guide to Grammar, Punctuation, and Style

by Erica Meltzer

"How to Write for Class: A Student’s Guide to Grammar, Punctuation, and Style" is a comprehensive guide to core concepts that high school and college students must know in order to write effectively. Rather than treat grammar as a series of rules to be memorized, it emphasizes the logic behind the English language. In addition, because students often struggle to apply abstract rules or overly simplified examples to the more complex sentences they want to include in their own writing, this book makes use of material from real papers and walks students through the process of constructing the types of sophisticated statements that will raise their academic writing to the next level. PLEASE NOTE: This book contains some of the same material that appears in "The Ultimate Guide to SAT Grammar" and "The Complete Guide to ACT English." However, it covers concepts in significantly greater depth and includes different exercises as well as complete chapters not present in the other guides.
