Studying both English literature and linguistics at the University of Chicago gave Mollie a dual perspective on grammar — she understands the formal rules of syntax and also why English bends them so often. She breaks down tricky concepts like dangling modifiers, parallel structure, and comma splice...

Grammar clicks when you understand the logic behind the rules, not just the red ink.

She explains the logic behind each rule so corrections stick, rather than handing over a list...
