Answer the Question3:05
Some questions are just freebies! Learn how to answer one of the easiest types of questions in the Writing & Language section.
Word & Sentence Meaning5:05
Use the sentence context to pick the word with the meaning that fits exactly with its context.
Transitions6:01
If you use transitions in your writing, this one should be easy! If you don't use transitions, then it's vital that you learn how to use them in order to improve the logical flow of your writing.

This is a great chance to learn some of the most important transitions since the College Board tests this skill relentlessly.

Parts of Speech7:45
Let's learn the 7 main parts of speech that are the foundations of grammar.

Very few people know that any words ending in an "-ing" are NOT verbs. This is critical for every student!
Possessives5:00
Possessives are pretty easy, but the College Board tests this one a lot, so it's worth reviewing.
Punctuation7:17
We all now how to use a period, but are you confident with your comma usage or just guessing?

How about colons, semi-colons, and em-dashes? If not, this is the lecture for you.
Comparatives & Superlatives4:40
Weirder or more weird? Happier or more happy? Commoner or more common?

Do you know the exact usage rules for comparatives and superlatives?
