Series : Communicating With Grammar

Communicating with Grammar: Skills for Life 2e is a Canadian series for ESL and EFL students who wish to improve their English grammar. It presents clear and concise grammar theory through explanations and examples. Following a four-skills approach, the associated task-based activities contextualize new grammar concepts in a communicative manner. The readings, audio, and activities focus on common personal and professional situations, such as interactions with family, friends, and colleagues, which increases students' comfort and ability in communicating in real life. By the end of the textbook, students will be prepared for further study or work in an English-speaking environment.

Level 3 is designed for advanced-level ESL students who are approaching fluency. At the completion of this level, students will be able to communicate with native speakers in academic and professional settings.

Readership : Designed for post-secondary students who are looking to improve their English grammar.

Reviews

  • "This is an excellent grammar text for both academic and non-academic study. The grammar points are clearly introduced and are reinforced with a variety of practice opportunities."

    --Laura DiTrolio, Fanshawe College

  • "The idea of the vocab list is excellent, as is pulling from the AWL. The cross-over between writing and grammar is useful, even if it is limited."

    --Cheryl Howrigan, Vancouver Community College
