Excel in English: Learn Grammar with Puzzles
Excel in English is a fun grammar activity in the course.
What it is
Students learn grammar by solving small puzzles.

Why it works
Most grammar lessons explain rules first. This activity is different.
Students learn by doing:
- Change sentences
- Try answers
- See results right away
- Notice the grammar pattern
Learn the rules by doing, not by reading long explanations.
How it works
- Watch a short video. The teacher shows how to solve the puzzle.

- Instant feedback
- Clear confirmation
- Game-like practice
Example
Students may change a sentence like this:
He attended the meeting.
To this:
He did attend the meeting.
If it is correct, the cell turns green. If not, they adjust and try again.
