book to help me tutor ESL student
This book is a good format to use for a tutor of English as a Second Language. My student & I meet at the local library 2X a week and we have already started using this book. I can also see how it would help any student (and even the teacher!) correct often-made mistakes!Thanks for this book; I recommend it for anyone wanting to improve their spoken &/or written English.

Love it!
I needed a book for an ESL class that would give clear, concise explanations for basic grammar. This was a great help and I highly recommend it for anyone hoping to improve his/her day-to-day grammar.

Awesome reference for ESL teaching!
I recently purchased this book as a quick reference for my ESL classes and have found it to be TREMENDOUSLY helpful! I bought a stack of books to help me teach the course, but this one has been used the most by far! In a pinch, I can easily teach an entire lesson using the very well-organized sections, ranging from Spelling to Verbs/Tenses to Prepositions and beyond! In the end, I decided to buy a copy for each of my students, as they have found it to be an easy-to-use reference. There are a few points made by Collins with which I don't agree (i.e., in his chapter on Modals he states that one would typically only use "can I?" not "may I?" when asking permisson), but aside from these few points, I LOVE this book--in less than a week of use, it has earned a permanent place on my desk!

Excellent for second language speakers of English
Excellent for second language speakers of English. Organized in a way that makes it easy to see correct and incorrect grammar usage. Spotlights key topics for foreign speakers. Is visually easy to use.

A must have
As an L2 speaker, you should have this book with you, especially if you are writing academic papers and would like to improve your vocabulary choice at the time of conversing with native speakers in academic settings.

Nice hints
Very useful for learners of English!The author included even some hints about pronounce (don't be afraid to show your tongue! hahahaha).The technique of inserting "WRONG" red marks in the - of course - wrong words, grammar or pronounce, is very useful to make you REMEMBER the rules. I keep coming back to check and... it helps me a lot! Nice book!
