A Workbook on English Grammar and Composition by D Sudha Rani

About the book
Teaching of English grammar to a mixed group of students where the primary aim is to make the class interesting and learner-centric is always a challenge to the teachers. To meet this challenge, it is essential to equip the classroom with new and innovative methods and materials for learning. This new text-cum-workbook on English grammar is an attempt towards this direction. Based on real classroom experience of the authors, the book has got clear organization and user-friendly accessible language. Ample numbers of provided exercises aim to enable the students to regress and polish their grammar consistently while they enjoy learning through activity based work. Both students and teachers will appreciate the self-teaching quality that incremental exercises provide throughout the chapters with keys at the end of the book.
