If this is from a genuine school I would not advise enrolling with it. The passage needs more than grammar correction. It needs rewriting.
Here is a suggestion (with the spelling mistakes corrected and the whole passage edited)
-We are exam-oriented to make you score higher.
-We provide guidance and strategies on how to avoid the mistakes that students often make because of carelessness.
-We give spot exam questions, as well as tips, so you can learn more easily and constructively.
I confess that I am baffled by the sentence, �We strengthen your confidence and make study-life more interesting and look forward to �success is an inside job.� �
Perhaps it should it be, �We strengthen your confidence and make study life more interesting. Remember, �success is an inside job.� �
I am not sure about the quotation, �success is an inside job." It is not anything I have heard before. I am not clear what it means, anyway. |
