Review

This attractive and thorough book was originally titled A Grammar Course for TEFL Certificate, but the author changed its title to reach a wider readership. The name change was a wise move in my opinion, for this book has features that could have easily been ignored by many teachers who should find it immensely useful.

One of the elements to appreciate is the Teaching Notes. You will not regret reading them as Penston imparts wisdom not only on grammar but also on teaching methods and differences between language learners. --TESL Ontario Contact, Spring 2008
