[Jonathan Hockey · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book has given me some useful ideas of ways to teach English Grammar that I can now apply. I am just starting on learning what it is like to teach English. There is so much about the language and its structure you take for granted as a native speaker. It is is interesting to get some valuable insights into aspects of this, and how they can be taught to people who are not native speakers through various games and activities.

Some of the games seem dated but they can be revived and refreshed with a bit of work.
