A crash course for EFL / ESOL, English and MFL Teachers who need to "bush up" their grammar. This is not a fun course, it's just straight to the point, with exercises to understand grammar, then classroom practice to develop ways to teach it. It can be used as a reference book and includes: Phonetics Word classes Phrases Sentence structure From the preface: "This was a coursebook I wrote when I was teaching at Haberdashers' Aske's Hatcham College, London and I had to give a long series of inset lessons to other teachers who wanted to "brush up" their grammar.
It is not a fun book by any means; it is a crash course to catch up with your grammar. In case you are starting to teach English (ESOL and EFL especially) but also MFL (well, you usually know grammar then) but also English at school, and you need a quick course, this may be for you. On the other hand, you can also use it as a reference grammar book, and every topic is followed by exercises and classroom practice (to think about how you could teach it), and reflection activities also follow."
