The Basic Cozy Grammar Course
AMTEC AWARDS - 2001 Award of Excellence winner
in the category of Informational-Visual

"Effective educational technology in the new
millennium."

From the 2001 AMTEC Media Festival Awards program:Many people are
concerned by what they perceive as a lack of grammar skills being taught in schools
today. The producers of THE BASIC COZY GRAMMAR COURSE have
created a self-contained audio/visual learning tool that would help
parents and educators to empower themselves to do something about the
problem. The goal was to provide a comprehensive, easy-to-follow course
in basic English grammar, presented in a relaxed, non-threatening setting,
by a retired English teacher considered to be a master teacher by administrators,
colleagues, parents and students. Their hope is that teachers or parents could use
it to teach themselves. We hope to see it utilized by public and private schools,
homeschoolers, adult literacy programs, libraries, tutors etc.
AMTEC is a Pan-Canadian community of educators, media producers,
