Great Grammar Resource!

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago

This book has been vital in teaching the basics of English grammar. Things like active/passive voice, prepositions, and pronouns are presented here with exercises to allow instruction and follow-up. This book is a great tool for instruction. I've used it with highschoolers through adults, and it is invaluable.

A great supplementary source for adult ESL students

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago

This little book is packed with useful practice pages for beginning to intermediate ESL students. Each page includes practice sentences on one particular skill--prepositions, irregular verbs, pronouns, etc. I have found it to be extremely useful with my adult ESL students. After teaching a particular English skill, possibly with a different text, I find that looking up a specific page in the table of contents and using it as reenforcement and extra repetitive practice to be very helpful. My students agree with me, and several have asked me to order a copy for them. It's great!

I solid grammar workbook

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago

I use the Regents English Workbook to help students who can't grasp basic grammar. I teach 9th graders to college Sophmores. Workbook 1 is good for 9-10 graders, 2 for upperclassmen, and I use 3 for my college students. The exercises are clear and give some introduction to the material. The answer key at the back lets students check their progress, and the exercises are fairly comprehensive.The only problem I really have with the books is how they jump around. I think author was trying to hit problems in order of most to least common. This lack of structure can be confusing however, if you want to work on a specific area you know you have trouble in.

Excellent for ESL

I teach high school ESL, and I have been introduced to the first edition of this book through my classroom library. I am impressed by the way that version of the book uses repetition of skills to foster learning. I look forward to using this newer edition in my lower and intermediate level classes.
