SSP 103 - grammatical concepts for this session

For my SSP103 class

Welcome to my class.  This is an intensive English language course, therefore, we have a lot to learn in a very short time.  Below are the main grammatical concepts we will cover.  We will also study vocabulary, some pronunciation and speaking and listening.

Please try to study on your own, or with a study group, every day, to reinforce the material we cover in class.   The final exam is scheduled for 4/  /2013.
