 # Class based views
 
-Sanic has simple class based implementation. You should implement methods(get, post, put, patch, delete) for the class to every HTTP method you want to support. If someone try to use not implemented method, there will be 405 response.
+Sanic has simple class based implementation. You should implement methods(get, post, put, patch, delete) for the class to every HTTP method you want to support. If someone tries to use a method that has not been implemented, there will be 405 response.

 If you need any url params just mention them in method definition:
 
 ```python
-class NameView(MethodView):
+class NameView(HTTPMethodView):
