I'm studying NT Greek on my own after taking a short Greek grammar course at my church. The workbook follows the Summers text book to a tee. But it also asks you questions beyond what is required in the textbook and gives valuable additional information to the student. As another review commented, there are some mistakes in the exercises. However you can use these few mistakes to sharpen your grammar skills by learning more from them. I think "Essentials of New Testament Greek" should be studied using both the textbook and the Student's guide for a better study discipline.

This study into Koine Greek is excellently written and really gives you a great head start into the Greek New Testement. I believe it could have gone a little further without leaving the beginners field, but I believe I am ready for intermediate studies now. Mr. Steven L. Cox presents New Testement Greek in a nice, easy to understand, format.

We had Summers' textbook for 1st year Greek and I worked my way through this companion study guide on my own. I found it to be of little value because there are dozens of mistakes! I contacted B&H to let them know and was given the runaround. This book is NOT a good study aid until/unless B&H corrects the errors.

I am taking a Greek class and this book has been a wonderful asset in helping me to understand the language. I recommend it to anyone interested in Greek.

I am a little more than halfway through this grammar and I really enjoy it. I am using for self study, and the local Christian University uses it as their textbook. I would definetly get the workbook, or you won't have anyway of checking yourself on the exercises at the end of each lesson because the answers are in the back of the workbook and the questions/exercises are in this textbook. There are mistakes just like a previous review stated, however it also challenges you by double checking the book!!
