5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, friendly way to teach grammar, March 18, 2007

This review is from: Communicative Grammar Practice Student's book: Activities for Intermediate Students of English (Paperback)

Clear, systematic and logical, this book provides a practical way to teach grammar in a painless, sometimes even fun way. Each two-page chapter includes 4-6 exercises where students can work together to learn a specific grammar point and improve speaking skills. Best part: the concise grammar summaries in the back - far better than Azar. Better for classroom use than self-study, but several students have used it outside of class too.

3.0 out of 5 stars might be good for students in "classroom", October 12, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Communicative Grammar Practice Student's book: Activities for Intermediate Students of English (Paperback)

This book has many illustrations and situations so that ESL students can be useful for the lesson in "classroom." BUT, If you want to study English sentences & grammer by yourself,you had better use other textbook,because this book doesn't have answers of the questions in it!
