Customer Reviews:

Very helpful

By Ann L. Allman - February 9, 2008

After fifty years I had forgotten how to conjugate certain irregular verbs correctly and needed that information to complete a book. I found this book helpful not only for the experienced but for the beginner, as it conveniently provides charts for quick reference. I would recommend this for other-nationals as well, as I was once a Spanish major.

Almost five stars

By S. Zimberoff - May 5, 2010

This is so far the only Enblish verb book I have found that has the information presented clearly and that can be used as a reference or teaching text or resource for English language learners. No 5th star because the type size is way too small! I have returned many other similar sounding books and was pleased to finally have one that I could use with my ESL students.

The books title says it all

By norCal gg - September 12, 2009

I purchased two copies so I had one for reference and could give the other to my adult ESL learner. It is an excellent teaching tool. The exercises are clear and easy to understand and the answers are provided in the back for "expert" correction. For me it has also been an easy way to improve my own skills which have gotten a little rusty after more than 20 years absence from an English classroom. This book has been an excellent addition to my library.
