Book Description
Grammar for English Language Teachers helps teachers to develop their overall knowledge and understanding of English grammar, and provides a quick source of reference in planning lessons and clarifying learners' problems. Each chapter includes a Typical difficulties section, which explores learners' problems and mistakes. The book encourages teachers to appreciate the range of factors which affect grammatical choices, but also introduces the 'rules of thumb' presented to learners in course materials. The Consolidation exercises provide an opportunity for teachers to test the rules against real language use and to evaluate classroom and reference materials. The book is organised thematically, but also provides a 'short cut ' index at the beginning for ease of reference. There is also a Cambridge ELT website with further chapter-by-chapter extension exercises to accompany the book.

Pages : 414

Book Description
It is a refresher, a reference book and a workbook for teachers of English. It is also for teachers handling subjects other than English in schools and colleges. The book centres round the idea that grammar paves the way for smooth and accurate communication, and aims to strike a balance between conventional concepts and latter-day developments, and between descriptive grammar and grammar in use. Each chapter of the book begins by describing the forms of the grammatical class or category it deals with. It then presents a variety of illustrative examples. Finally, it explains the communicative uses of the forms and the situations in which they are typically used. A distinct feature of the book is that it deals with both spoken and written grammar, with greater emphasis on the written mode.

It makes the study of grammar interesting and relevant by presenting grammar in context and by using authentic material from a wide variety of sources.
