The examples are based on real English from the Collins Corpus, while simple illustrations help make grammar concepts easier to understand. The layout is uncluttered, there’s plenty of room for students to write their answers, and a full answer key means learners can check their own work, which makes the book equally useful in class or for independent study at home.
For teachers, it’s the sort of book that’s handy to have within arm’s reach: use a unit for focused grammar practice, give selected exercises to a learner who needs a little extra support, or let students work independently while you help elsewhere. For learners studying on their own, the clear unit-by-unit structure makes it easy to choose an area, practise it and check how you did.
Lair’s tip: Keep this book available for the moments when one student needs more practice with a grammar point while the rest of the class is ready to move on. Let them choose the relevant unit, work through a few exercises and check their answers independently without making it a big deal.
Because the series continues through A2, B1, B2 and C1, you can build the same little grammar-practice system across different levels.
