Praise for Refreshing Grammar ""What I love about Refreshing Grammar is its approach, which is a revelation to me, and really suits the way I like to learn. It has opened up a world of language in a way that hasn't been available to me."" ""Refreshing Grammar offered new strategies and ways of thinking which I genuinely went into the classroom the next day and applied. I was fairly confident about grammar but found Jodie's approach much more intuitive, as did our students."" -Isobel, Head of English ""I can truly say that Refreshing Grammar has transformed my teaching and enabled our students to achieve much more and gain higher marks in their writing.""
