Has your teacher ever told you to stop writing run-on sentences?
Do you know what a run-on sentence is?

A run on sentence is a sentence that contains two independent clauses which have not been separated by a semi colon or period/full stop.

For example:
Jim is great at English he is great at French too.

There are actually two ways to fix this run-on sentence:
1) Jim is great at English; he is great at French too.
2) Jim is great at English. He is great at French too.

That was not that difficult, was it?
