Practice Makes Perfect Basic English, Second Edition: (Beginner) 53 leasons +125 Exercises + 40 Audio Pronunciation Exercises (Practice Makes Perfect Series) 2nd Edition

I did a lot of research on beginning ESL books, and this one is by far the best. The learning is incremental. Not too fast, and not too slow. It's challenging enough for good students, but has built in elements to help those who struggle. The app is priceless. I love the way it has the student look up all vocabulary in a given lesson FIRST, then they have it as a reference as they work through the lesson. This allows them to build their own working bilingual dictionary.

My husband is learning English and I got this as a way to boost his knowledge (he's learned through various online programs and apps, but no formal classes). It's been great! He's skilled enough to understand the directions, so I'm not sure how easy it would be for someone with no knowledge of the language. I've been using the French Practice Makes Perfect books and have made great progress with those.

If you are trying to learn English, start with this book! It provides an excellent foundation for learning, goes through each part of speech and how to use it in sentence structure and has sufficient vocabulary for learning. You can't go wrong with this book series.

Got as a companion to the "Advanced" volume. I just wanted lots of examples. I read and write at a very high level but didn't know the rules. I enjoy learning the nuts and bolts. This would be great for anyone that either never learned the rules, speaks/writes at a basic level and wants to improve or is ESL.

I am currently using this with high-beginners and they say it's helping them learn. It does take independent time to have the students look up words in their own language before trying the exercises. For independent study, some lessons are difficult for students to understand on their own without assistance. It works great for a class environment or tutoring one-on-one. Students do need to prepare in advance by looking up the words on the translation list for each lesson.

I am an ESOL teacher and use this in both my professional classes and for tutoring. It is a systematic presentation of both grammar and vocabulary.

I teach an ESL class using this book. The grammar lessons, exercises, and vocabulary make it an excellent tool for my students to learn English.

The book is nice but you should either adjust the description of the book or send us the "+ Flashcard App + 90-minute Audio " since it is not available we will be glad to downloaded online if it is available somewhere or if you can send us the linkI did not see any response on the other comments hope i get oneRegards
