Since my self assessment won't be able to be assessed at the end of the term because of my impressive lack of grammatical knowledge, here I go again...
Having an extra week to get a more solid sense of what will be involved in this course helps me pin down what I need to work on. There are the common apprehensions that I have such as effect vs. affect and the who vs. whom (I can't NOT think of Ross from FRIENDS when I hear "whom"). I think I use commas and semicolons okay but it will be reassuring to learn more about them. My largest concern though, came in class on Wednesday when we were going through the Daily Evergreen. I'm not a total dope, I know nouns, verbs, and adjectives but I felt a little uneasy at adverbs and pronouns. I'm sure once we discuss them more, it'll come back to me but I might need some extra practice.
I hope this gives a better idea of what I can work on, and hopefully at the end of the semester I'll have more confidence in my grammar skills.
