Commas should be added before and after "from Durham" in the first sentence, and after "confidence" in the second sentence, as explained below.

Where should we add commas?

In the first sentence, the phrase "from Durham" is used to explain where Jenny is from. However, since the phrase is not essential for the sentence to make sense, we must place it between commas. The correctly punctuated sentence would be:

  • Jenny, from Durham, has been an apprentice accountant for two years.

In the second sentence, we must separate the items listed by the speaker. We must add a comma after the first and second items, "confidence" and "new skills." When it comes to the last item, "and friends," it is acceptable to both add and not add a comma before it. Therefore, there are two possibilities:

  • She said: "It's an excellent way to gain confidence, new skills and friends."
  • She said: "It's an excellent way to gain confidence, new skills, and friends."

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer given above is correct.
