Adults
The Grammar Shop and More also offers writing, math, and even parenting classes for adults. Learn to be a better writer, become more efficient with your “Mental Math” and to better understand the experience of your children as they face challenges, choices, and the passage of life. Having been a classroom teacher for 25 years and more recently a parent to elementary, middle, and high school students, Brad and his staff understand just what homework looks like on both sides: school and home. We can help releive the stress and anxiety of parents looking to balance supporting their children with developing independence and the understanding of the importance of practice to success. We can help set up homework routines, calendars, and goals so that homework becomes more efficient, productive, and relaxed for families.
The Four W’s Wednesdays, Writing, with Wine!
Come and join us at the shop for "The Four W's" every Wednesday starting again soon. We offer a place to hone your communication skills for all platforms from text messages to family and friends through that novel or screenplay that you have been itching to get started.
​
Lessons will cover the basics of grammar and syntax, composing dialogue, word choice and vocabulary improvement, spelling, and, well, more. Short "In-class" writing activities and "Author's Chair" will provide feedback and an opportunity to increase your confidence and develop your own "Ear" to help and support your student at home with his/her writing assignments.
​
We promise a relaxing and collegial environment, a friendly place to become a better writer, communicator, and editor. Bring your own bottle of wine, or sign up for the tasting option, selected by renowned sommelier, Harvey Gilbert (my dad!)

Reviews
"Brad Gilbert makes grammar fun. Yes, I actually said the words grammar and fun in the same sentence. He also makes grammar accessible and easy to learn. Following Brad’s success teaching my children, I organized an adult class, because I knew I needed more tools in my writing basket. Joined by a novelist, a cookbook writer, a lawyer, an actress and a producer who all wanted some brushing up, I found the experience rewarding and beneficial. I wholeheartedly recommend Brad."
