Book Description
"This book is for:ESL students can use this book to improve their grammar and structure. Numerous exercises and answer keys in this book are particularly useful for reinforcing what you learn in each chapter. Native speakers of English who want to teach English as a second language can use this book as a teaching guide. It provides a step by step approach to teaching and learning English. The numerous exercises can be used by ESL teachers as classroom or homework activities. Other versions of this book with additional explanations in other languages may also be available for ESL students. If you learned another language as an adult or a juvenile, you are familiar with the challenges of learning a foreign language. This book is the result of learning and teaching English as a foreign language. It will help you put yourself in the shoes of a learner so you can help them learn the language easily. They say if you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime. The spirit of this book is also similar. If you tell a student to memorize a sentence or a phrase, you are only helping him with that one sentence. However, if you teach him how to make sentences and phrases, he will be able to make hundreds and thousands of sentences and speak the language. In my experience, simply memorizing sentences and phrases does not lead to success in learning a language. My hope is that this book will provide a step by step approach by teaching structure and grammar which will lead to a successful and pleasant language acquisition. Vocabulary lists begin each chapter. each list includes all the vocabulary used in the examples and exercises in the chapter. The vocabulary list is meant to be learned first so the student can use it throughout the chapter. The vocabulary list contains some of the most frequently used words in English.Grammar and structure is explained in both Farsi and English. Both can be used depending on who is using the book. The English explanation of topics is intended for teachers and those who already speak some English. Exercises are the most important component of this book. They are presented after every new topic. They are designed to reinforce what is learned by the students.Exercise Answer Keys are a great tool for students to check how well they have learned a topic. It helps them with their self-study and mastery of each topic. It also enables students to work independently in case they don’t have a teacher." --
