We have watched 4 of the lessons and I can already tell you that this is going to be one of the best purchases for our homeschool! My 7 year-old, who has a difficult time with grammar, was so excited when he could grasp what a subject and a predicate are. We do have a[…]
Our family has enjoyed the Basic Cozy Grammar Course very much. Marie Rackham is thorough and imaginative in her teaching and presentation of material. She provides solid teaching with clear examples. This program is a great teaching tool for all ages. One added bonus to the program is the spectacular photography and music!
My daughter would be considered a special ed student and suffers from ADD. She particularly needed to improve her poor writing skills. While she found the background music somewhat distracting, she nevertheless loved the course, and it was extremely beneficial in improving her skills.
I have three children with different learning styles and they all love The Basic Cozy Grammar Course. Although I have spent some time on grammar with my children, they picked up more just watching the video than they did from any books that I have used. I have one child that is dyslexic and she[…]
My 6 year old gifted daughter just loved ‘The Basic Cozy Grammar Course’. She watched it with great interest and picked up most of the concepts after a few viewings. The material is clearly printed on the screen, with vivid and congenial presentations by Marie. The clarity and personal touch helped my daughter easily acquire[…]
This course is a refreshing change from regular texts and workbooks. The video captured my children’s attention and helped them to develop a better understanding of grammar. The written portion of the lessons is easy to work through once a lesson has been watched and learned.
I believe that my children’s education is an extension of my parenting. I like to use a variety of approaches in my homeschool language arts curriculum and that applies to grammar as well. Cozy Grammar has been a wonderful addition to my collection of resources. My children watch it intently, and they like to keep[…]
My daughter previously disliked studying grammar. She is an avid reader and as a result she could recognize poor grammar, but didn’t understand the mechanics of it. The Basic Cozy Grammar Course has made the study of formal grammar enjoyable for her.
As a way to learn grammar this beats boring text books, and the kids grasp the concepts quickly. I will/have been recommending it to the homeschoolers here.
Just Excellent! When I was in school, I was grammatically challenged even though I did very well in other language arts areas. I have learned considerably more from watching these videos with my children than I ever did in school. I wish I’d had it then. My children enjoy it because it is fun, easy,[…]
Engaging enough for my active five-year-old son to watch every minute. Instructional enough for my eleven-year-old son to ace the final exam. Cozy Grammar proves that grammar lessons need not be tedious or dull, for a teacher or a student. All three of our children loved learning grammar Marie’s way and we want to visit[…]
Cozy Grammar really helps to promote an easy understanding of grammar. We especially appreciate the extensive use of on-screen writing. The way the words change color as Marie points to them, makes the concepts so clear and easy to follow. My children respond to it wonderfully. It reminds me of a T.V. show I liked[…]
Although we have not yet begun to use the Cozy Grammar course, our family viewed it in order to get an idea of the presentation. We feel that Marie’s colorful, comical, unique and eclectic personality will be just the thing to help our thirteen and sixteen year old boys retain the lesson concepts.
My 10-year-old daughter, Alexa, found language a chore and boring. As a homeschool Mom, I searched high and low for a program that would stimulate her interest. I tried other curriculums. Other Moms recommended The Basic Cozy Grammar Course. When it arrived in no time at our home, we tried it. My daughter was excited![…]
This is an excellent Basic Grammar course. The instructor is engaging and very effective. I used this to teach my reluctant 7th grader. He doesn’t exactly “love” grammar now, but he is no longer intimidated.
My son, who is eleven, looked forward to his daily grammar lessons with Marie. I enjoyed them too. In fact, as we would sit on the couch with our cup of tea, it felt more like we were visiting with an old friend in her beautiful home, than learning grammar. But, learn we did, in[…]
