It is an ideal refresher for students of Upper Intermediate to Advanced levels of English. It has been compiled for those of you who would like to increase your vocabulary and freshen up on the main grammar points - which is always a good idea at all levels of English. Grammar rules are clearly explained after the grammar revision at the final section of the book. Time lines have also been included to clarify meanings. For quick reference the book rounds off with a review of all the main tenses, with particular focus on the narrative tenses, which are extremely important for indicating time shifts and background information when writing exam essays.

Every day language, vocabulary and grammar are continuously recycled throughout the book.
“Come and Go”
There is a high frequency of errors among students who are non native to English, when using “come” and “go”. Even the most advanced Learner of English, continues to error on these two verbs. Clear distinctions are set out on how to use them, and an exercise is included to reinforce their use. Answers follow each exercise.
Verbs such as “borrow and lend”, “bring and take”, “speak and talk”, "manage to and be able to" etc., also continue to create confusion even at higher levels of English. The book deals with how to use these verbs correctly with clear explanations on their use and exercises with readily accessible answers.
There are also exercises on how to augment your vocabulary by becoming familiar with suffixes and prefixes - a good idea for any student of an intermediate to an advanced level.
More exercises follow to practise paraphrasing (key word transformation) – an important requirement for exams such as First certificate and Cambridge Advanced.
An exercise on connectors is also included in the book for those of you who would like to revise their use. As always, clear guidance in context is given on how to apply this language along with answers which follow each exercise.
English learners continue to make prepositional errors throughout their learning lives. The book includes an “extensive” verb + preposition section with exercises to facilitate comprehension. Are you continuing to use “depend from” instead of “depend on”? Don't be caught out making such errors typical among non natives.
End confusion today.
