Oxford English Grammar: the essential guide

Oxford English Grammar: the essential guide is a grammar reference and practice book for Grade 8-12 learners. It is suitable for both English First Additional Language and English Home Language learners and can be used alongside any core English course. This practical guide can be used for reference, self-study, and consolidation practice. Key language concepts are explained in a logical order, which ensures learner progression. Examples of common mistakes, and how to correct them, help learners to avoid frequently made language errors. Exercises at more than one level for each concept ensure that learners build language skills in a scaffolded way. A resource section with annotated writing texts and other useful references can be used by learners for self-study. This guide will assist the English teacher in consolidating and expanding learners’ knowledge and use of language structures.
