grammar, punctuation and spelling, this best-selling text/ workbook
features a unique pedagogy, user-friendly writing style, and a positive

students often exhibit. Standard English skills essential for getting a
good job, holding the job, and advancing in a career are acquired through
clear, brief discussions followed by reinforcing exercises, carefully
placed after each new lesson. Students learn by studying small amounts,
then self- checking, thus reinforcing chapter material immediately. The
authors stimulate student motivation, lessen anxiety, and maintain
interest by using a light touch and a practical business orientation
throughout.
