About the Course

If you struggle to express complex ideas in English, don’t worry! This course will lead you step-by-step on your journey to more advanced writing. In the first part of the course, you’ll learn some basic information about adverb clauses. Then, we’ll dive into the categories of ideas that adverb clauses express, and you’ll practice using subordinating conjunctions--the many grammar words that start adverb clauses. At the end of the course, you’ll learn how to use varied types of sentences in your writing, and you’ll show off all that you’ve learned by writing a paragraph. We’ll compare this final paragraph with one that you’ll write at the beginning of the course, and you’ll see the difference that adverb clauses can make....

I liked the course, the types of sentences are given: simple, compound, complex, mixed and simple. Structures of each type of sentence and punctuation marks for each type of sentence are presented. Particular attention is paid to complex sentences with their conjunctions, since the topic of the course is titled as sentences with adverb conjunctions. The theme of the course is revealed!Kakzhanova Fazira

I like this course because it teaches me about clauses, punctuation and placement, time and place, cause and contrast, condition, and the introduction of adverb clauses. The keywords for adverb clauses are even if, if, unless, in case, where, wherever, everywhere, before, because now that since, although, whereas, while, then, etc. I also learned how to avoid mistakes in adverb clauses with six pieces of advice, either adding an unnecessary or missing the commas; if the adverb clause comes at the end, there is no comma. If it comes first, use a comma. Look out for the wrong conjunction in sentences, having incomplete clauses without the subject and verb, and study the fragment for either the subject or predicate is not in sentences; having extra conjunction doesn't start an independent clause with coordinating conjunction words such as for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so or FANBOYS, and don't use subordinate conjunctions as a transition in your writing. Adverb clauses are an essential part of writing, and they can add deep and complexity to your sentences.
