Expanding Bundle - English Complimentary Resources for Teachers

(0)
This eBook is a unique* concept, a treasure chest of complimentary teacher resource for ELT (as well as for intermediate level autonomous learners (and above). It includes special lists, tables and charts of useful, systematically organised, content and ‘insider’ information (you most likely won’t find in mainstream course books), as well as ‘background’ explanations that lend to a whole different approach as to how English can be understood, in stark contrast to how it is taught today, with traditional (and flawed) analyses based on Latin ‘grammar’ that actually restrict communication, more than anything. (Study the file: Preface and Table of Contents for details.) This concept is that with thisBundle you also get updates for a lifetime (for as I long as I live to update it). Now at 290 pages(and without fancy illustrations)— which I am continually weekly expanding in the Cloud* so that those who purchase (separately) an Evernote Personal/Professional membership, also gain access to a folder containing a wealth of searchable additional content (+1980 files) all tagged by topic, plus several TOCs sorted by topics and alphabetically.
