Description: Grammar in Use Intermediate is a highly successful grammar text known for its clear explanations and innovative format. Each unit in the Student's Book is a two-page spread that teaches a specific grammar point on the left-hand page, and provides practice exercises on the right. A unique combination of reference grammar and practice book, this book can be used as a classroom text or for self-study. The new edition includes an Audio CD and nine units of new material. Two entirely new sections have also been added: Additional Exercises, which give students the opportunity to consolidate what they have learned; and the Study Guide, which helps students figure out which units they need to study. An answer key is now included in the back of the book. An edition without answers is also available. Grammar in Use Intermediate, is suitable for students who are preparing for the TOEFL® Test and other standard examinations.
Details: I use this book as a grammar reference and conversation stimulus in my ESL classes and private tutoring.
It's very well organized although the cd only contains every 4 chapters which is a bit disappointing. However the students like it which is essential.
Review Summary: Fun grammar book

Details: I love this book. It should not be used as a reference but for practicing your American English. Perhaps the exercises should be a little harder. It is well organized into sections and explains things in a clear way.
Review Summary: Concise and easy to follow

Details: Great grammar book for anyone whose grammar is rusty. This would be a great tool for ESL teachers because each 2-page lesson is self-contained with grammar explanations and exercises. I like the format that lets someone do one lesson at a time at his/her own pace.
Review Summary: Great book for learning grammar as a foreign native

Details: My children studied the basic version of Grammar in Use. As non-English speaking family, I am happy that our children are enrolled in GT classes or in a Magnet school. They have gotten 'A's in Reading and/or English. Now they are learning this version. Well organized expressions and rich examples are guiding them to the 'fast track'.
Review Summary: ESL revisited...

Details: Students love this book and so do I as their teacher in English as a Second Language or ESL in the El Paso TX area. This puts the polish on the vocabulary, comprehension, pronunciation, and confidence I attempt to instil in my students...the answers are in the back to aid self study and the CD allows them to hear correct pronunciation prior to coming to class so the class acts as a review for thier homework. Thank you.
