Grammar in Use With Answers and CD-ROM : A Self-Study Reference and
Practice Book for Intermediate Students by Raymond Murphy
English Grammar in Use is now available
with a bonus extra CD -ROM. It provides comprehensive coverage in
simple language of the problems intermediate students encounter.
As the title suggests this book is mainly
for self-study but I include it here because teachers can use
it just as well.
Side
by Side Book 1 by Steven J. Molinsky
Here are some more of what I consider
excellent books. These are mainly for intermediate and advanced
beginner students.
These are lessons using a lot of colorful
pictures and some photographs using basic grammar, item and object
identification, dialogues for practicing pronuciation and conversation
and building vocabulary.
Side
by Side Book 2 by Steven J. Molinsky
The second book in this popular series.
Just as good as the first with more lessons and more examples.
What's good about these books is not only
can they be used to teach one on one but they are also great in a
classroom situation because it invites participation between the
students.
Side
by Side Book 3 by Steven J. Molinsky
Of course it would be ideal to have the
complete set of these books since they are so much fun and so dynamic.
They provide a variety of acivities with
grammar, spelling, reading and conversation. I skip around from book to
book which keeps my students on their toes.
Basic
Vocabulary in Use with Answers by Michael McCarthy
This North American English edition of the
popular English Vocabulary in Use series is appropriate for classroom
use and for self-study reference and practice.
An easy-to-use format
