Grammar Help for a Nation That Needs It!

Nov. 1, 2012 - PRLog -- Correct Me If I’m Wrong, a new grammar book by Arlene Miller, promises to help a nation sorely in need of grammar remediation! Ms. Miller is the author of The Best Little Grammar Book Ever, which is consistently a bestselling grammar book on Amazon.

Here are some of the facts:
   ● Nearly half of all adult Americans read and write so poorly that they have trouble holding down decent jobs.
   ● American businesses spend over $3 billion annually training employees to write.
   ● In a recent national exam only twenty-seven percent of students at both  8th and 12th grade levels were able to write essays that were well developed and organized with proper language and grammar.

While texting has its place, good grammar and writing skills are necessary for writing that cover letter, completing that college application essay, and taking that grammar quiz that is required for a new job.

“In today’s economy and tight job market, it is even more important to put your best foot forward by communicating effectively in both writing and speaking,” says Miller, who is president of bigwords101, a company that publishes grammar books and conducts grammar workshops.

Readers love Arlene Miller’s grammar books because they are easy to use. Says author and New York Times columnist Kemble Scott: “Arlene Miller’s Correct Me If I’m Wrong puts English into plain English, which is no small feat. The book is terrific.”
