This made my score go up 5 points trust her
Thanks. Hopefully it works for me.
this gives me a 1998 college student vibe, and I can't explain why that's so appealing
Her voice is so relaxing
I get super confused on singular and plural grammar rules and this really helped me out! Taking the ACT tomorrow, wish me luck 😭
Same
it's been three months, how did you do?:)
edry g he didn’t subscribe
@@itachiiscoldfacts2481 how do you know?
Jeez man, I’m learning more here than my actual English class
Tip: explain why the wrong answers are wrong. Would definitely clear some confusion with some students.
Jay Sweazy 29 is not that bad marks,is it?
@@sandeepkhanal5468 Not at all, a 29 is easily enough for scholarships. I would push for a 30+ if possible, however.
sandeep khanal - no! The average is a 20-21 so a 29 is great!
I just finished taking the ACT after watching this video and this was extremely helpful!
Wish my act english was as good as my math and science
I’m the opposite, I got a 33 on math and a 30 on science and then a 19 on English... a 19! 😳
No Name I don’t think you are the opposite
No Name 😂 tf?

this video helped me bring my english score up by 9 points, from a 14-23
How was your score a 14...
This video is very useful to people like me who uses english as a second language. Thank you mam, your explanation is very clear and easy to understsnd. Very nice presentation. I am motivated to create my own channel because of you. Thank you very much.
This was really helpful! Thankyou so much :)
Thank you for this, it helps a lot.
I think this women is the best help I've had in months
Great video! Commas and apostrophes were the things I was missing the most!
This video helped a lot, thanks!
I got a 35 after watching this!
Well, maybe Josh DID plan to wear his duffle bag... we'll never know

Thank U so much, it is very clear and useful!!!
Little tip for people that got confused on verb agreement stuff. Usually the subject has “the” before the subject, not counting the Matt and his friend sentence she showed.
Thankyou very helpful ;)
To Divine Rod: It's easy. Take a sentence and ask "who does what?" The "who" would be a subject. The "does what" is a predicate. The skyscraper rises over the river. Who/what does what? The skyscraper does something. The skyscraper is a subject. Does what? Rises. Rises is a predicate.A bit harder now. Over the river a skyscraper rises. We have two nouns. Which I c a subject? Who does what? The river does nothing. The skyscraper does - it rises. The skyscraper is a subject (again).Hope it helps unless you are talking about more confusing examples.
Thank you this was very helpful
Thank you so much, aiming for nthn less than a 33 on the english section. i think i can get this if i keep watching ur videos
New teacher! Yay

I’m about to take the ACT on Saturday
Did this help
This video is a decade old, but these tips seem on point, i just hope the grammar portion of the test has not changed much since then.
It hasn’t. It’s the same. Same concepts, same test questions you’ll see.
Konnie Suggs thanks
Ty! ur bomb btw
Awesome video....I thought my grammar was perfect until I watched this video. LOL
Legend has it John is still wearing his duffle bag.
my score went up with her tips, trust her!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Jesus I just came from an ACT video that a guy made and not a SINGLE comment was about his appearance, what's wrong with you guys?
I think it's just because the "like-a-guy" group/mentality tends to be publicly shunned in the internet society, while "flirty" comments have been accepted due to the fact that a lot of females tend to like the attention flirting gives. Why that is, I don't know.
I know all these males are just so sexist it makes me sick
@@sawyergowen9098 she cute tho
in 2022 an this video is really useful thank you
You know that's my DVD!
I'm trying hard for just 29..
but I will

😇😇😇😇
How'd you do?
sandeep khanal ppp
Did you get in?
Did you make it ?
wonder if he even survived the test...
So with the sign it should say
“Employees must wash their hands”
Not “Employees must wash hands”
I mean, it's been shortened for conciseness. Ya gotta cut corners somehow, right?
@@topazi2198 That doesn't mean you can't fix the grammar.
You are the best English teacher I never come a cross off.You are the best ,an you are beautiful too
I’m taking that tomorrow 😰😰
Wish me luck.
You're the best English tutor
at 13:57 please someone tell me,,, cant his/her be replaced with their so it would still be correct?
Someone is singular. His or her is singular. - Pronoun- noun agreement
Their is plural. You need a plural subject/noun. - goes back to pronoun- noun agreement.
Hoped that helped! 👌🏽
She looks just like young Sarah in Jumanjii movie.. I liked your lesson. :)
omg I see it lol
I have trouble identifying the subjects of the sentences.
I like
Do you have a lisp?
Why does Sam’s dvd get an apostrophe ? Isn’t the apostrophe’s s standing in for is?
In which to me wouldn’t make sense.
The Bells' house.Before the fanboys with connected clauses. The dog ran always with its bone. It being the dog in this example.
this is very helpful.
Happy birthday, we care
Thank you. I'm enrolled in EGUMPP but need a better resource to learn so I found this helpful.
She’s pretty.
I wish you were my English teacher ! You explain things so well
Can you explain the “Someone lost their shoe” question?
my nama jeff
19
Are these all the English punctuation & grammar rules
Helpful! She doesn't explain why too in-depth though....... I wish she would explain something just for ten more seconds
It’s informative video for me. Please I have question which I am not finding any excuses for use comma with no coordinating in some example.
These sentences I cited from email which I have received from yahoo news , so it must be corrected I guess. Please , can you tell me what the excuses here for not using any coordinating conjunction here ?
1- A San Diego grand jury indicted the Hunters for allegedly using campaign accounts to pay for their children's private school tuition, lavish travel including restaurant meals that frequently cost hundreds of dollars.
2-The indictment alleges the Hunters lied about how the money was spent, with the couple saying it went to charity or campaign events when prosecutors said it was really used for groceries, restaurant meals and clothing.
3-Hunter appeared to blame his wife for the violations in an interview with Fox News last year, saying he gave Margaret power of attorney when he was deployed to Iraq as a marine in 2003, and that she oversaw his campaign finances.
Ok 'so I under'stand
I love how everyone in the comments are correcting each other's grammar 😂
is*
Everyone is singular
I died when she said, Dana is sizzling
11:38 AHAAAAHAAA
someone help dana
I know you said that the act never uses a comma with the "and" situation.
Ex I like beans, cheese, and, fruit too.
I like beans, cheese, and fruit too.
But the last time I took the act I found a problem like this. I don't understand which would be correct
Always go for the comma being there if you must choose.
@@necromancer6405 okay thank you! I'm taking the act today
do well on ur ACT why does the year matter?
I’m stuck at a 26 for English and I’m really hoping for a 30
Ima get a 30 on my english! 👌🏽
It's= it is, it has, it was
it was = 'twas
13:43 just so y'all know this is now incorrect(as it's from 2015). The word "their" now has the added definition of "belonging to or associated with a person of unspecified sex." So the sentence would be grammatically correct.
Dang it, colleges r sooo woke
Anything that comes after "of" can't be the subject. Not knowing this will make the subject verb agreement questions seem like a guessing game.
Justin Scott omg yes
Taking the act tm 🚶♀️
same :(
So here's why commas can mess you over here, *face zoom in* , you see you actually need to place them before FANBOYS, so then you have to *face zoom out* remember to use them.
I’m having a hard time understanding skyscraper example sentence. 😢
the skyscrapers are what's rising, not the river. since there are multiple skyscrapers, the verb must be plural
"their" is a singular gender neutral pronoun and so would be acceptable in at least the somebody shoe example. the second example I'm not sure, it may be acceptable but "its" would be a better option for the IRS.
I'm perplexed on her face
I'm confused about why the football stadium, which is singular is rises, but the skyscrapers (plural) is rise
a verb usually end in a 's' if the noun is singular and vise versa.
ex: How many people are coming? (people = plural so the verb should be are not is)
ex2: Is John going to coming? (John = singular so the verb should be is not are)
**Disclaimer: I am not a grammar teacher**
Spiculus In the english language, the third person (He,She,It) always causes the verb to end in S. For eg. she loveS me, Marc chooseS to help, It containS poison. It is just a rule, try to memorize it.
Did she try to wink at the end?
