Introduction
English Grammar Step by Step has been designed for intermediate and advanced students of English. It covers those areas where they find it difficult to cope with and/or that are crucial to learn English.
It is presented in such a way that students will assimilate the grammar points dealt with very easily, as they only have one piece of information in each section. In the revision exercises, however, they will have to go over the sections learnt earlier. Consequently, they will absorb all the contents given with extraordinary ease. Moreover, the cross-reference notes will help them to find any further details in other parts of the book.
Additionally, a wide range of words or phrases has been used to help them to acquire a good grasp of vocabulary, which is vital when studying a foreign language.
Last but not least, a key to all the exercises is also provided. This will be very useful to those who study on their own.
