Why correct grammar is important
In any piece of writing, the first thing readers notice are the grammatical errors.
Grammatical errors give a poor impression of the writer and the organisation the writer is working for.
Correct grammar:
- Gives a professional image of the writer and the organisation
- Creates a perception in the reader's mind that the writer and organisation are serious about doing business
Please read these sentences:
'I'm in the train; I'll be at work soon.'
'Everyone of us are ready for the performance appraisal.'
'Let me bring you to see the Manager.'
'Wanted: Part-time female Receptionist.'
'Peter, as well as other staff, have arrived for the meeting.'
If you think these sentences are correct, you most likely need to attend a Grammar Course.
