Customer Reviews

Very Useful

This English workbook is really well done. Exercises are realistic. Very useful for teaching adults ESL. Good purchase.

Good Overall, But a Bit Too Technical

Although there are many activities in this book that I do plan to use with the beginning speakers of English that I'll have over the summer, some of them are too technical. For example, there's an exercise titled "Participial Adjectives." This sort of terminology is on too high a level for the students I have. They would find it confusing. Other parts or the book, however, my students can handle, and will benefit from.

ESL Favorite

This is truly the best ESL workbook on the market. Not only are the grammar exercises filled with current and relevant exercises for an American cultural learning experience, but this book is very helpful as a grammar supplement.
