About the free online course

Strong grammar makes your English sound natural, confident, and professional. This free online course helps you move beyond the basics and handle the areas that often cause mistakes even for advanced learners. You will build sharper control of sentence structure so you can express nuance clearly in emails, presentations, interviews, academic writing, and everyday conversations.

Instead of memorizing rules in isolation, you will develop reliable habits for choosing the right form in real contexts. You will learn how placement of adverbs changes emphasis, how to make time relationships crystal clear with present perfect, past perfect, and future time clauses, and how to talk about plans and spontaneous decisions with greater precision. You will also strengthen accuracy with articles, including when to use the, when to use no article, and the simple sound-based rule that fixes a vs an mistakes.

The course also targets common problem areas that reduce clarity, such as tricky prepositions and the grammar patterns that follow certain verbs. You will become more comfortable choosing between gerunds and infinitives, and you will expand your working knowledge of everyday phrasal verbs so your English sounds more fluent without losing correctness. As you progress, you will learn to recognize frequent errors, correct them quickly, and make smarter choices about voice when rewriting sentences in active or passive form.

Each lesson is paired with practice questions so you can check your understanding immediately and turn knowledge into automatic skill. By the end, you should find it easier to write cleaner sentences, tell stories with smoother time order, and communicate your ideas with the accuracy expected in advanced English.

Where should adverbs be placed in English sentences?

Most adverbs go after the subject and before the main verb, but they usually follow the verb "be" and may vary by adverb type.

What is the difference between the present perfect and present perfect continuous?

Use the present perfect for completed results or experiences; use the present perfect continuous to emphasize an activity continuing from the past until now.

When do I use will instead of going to for future plans?

Use "will" for instant decisions, offers, and predictions; use "going to" for prior plans or predictions based on present evidence.
