Homeschool Review of Cozy Grammar and Punctuation Courses

At the beginning of this year, I
stumbled onto a very unique English curriculum - the Cozy
Basic Grammar and Cozy Basic Punctuation courses, an award-winning
series of relaxed English grammar and punctuation tutorials prepared as
living textbooks. After a little research (do a Google for either course
and you'll find a number of excellent reviews) I decided to order it and
give it a try. I have been using the Basic Cozy Grammar and Basic
Cozy Punctuation with my son this past semester, and I highly recommend
these courses. I have noticed a marked improvement in his
understanding of grammar and punctuation and a dramatic increase in his
interest in learning these subjects.
Marie Rackham is a delightful and
effective teacher who has won several awards for her innovative teaching
methods. Her lighthearted teaching style captures the student's
attention immediately. Her lessons are not only educational, they
are also entertaining, so my son is always eager to watch the next
lesson. Now when my son and I watch the lessons on DVD together, we feel
like a very dear and enjoyable friend is in our living room teaching
both of us grammar.
I was so impressed with this
curriculum that I began recommending it to all my homeschooling friends.
I was amazed to learn that none of the seasoned homeschooling families
in my area had even heard of Cozy Grammar. So, I have decided
to make it my mission to spread the word about these wonderfully
effective courses to other homeschooling families.
