About the Author
Geraldine Woods began her education when teachers still supplied inkwells to their students. She credits her 35-year career as an English teacher to a set of ultrastrict nuns armed with thick grammar books. She lives in New York City, where with great difficulty she refrains from correcting signs containing messages such as “Bagel’s for sale.” She is the author of more than 40 books, including English Grammar For Dummies, English Grammar Workbook For Dummies, Research Papers For Dummies, College Admission Essays For Dummies, and The SAT For Dummies.
