Effective Grammar Books & CDs

Grammar, the study of combining words to form sentences that help communicate better is often

overlooked by most. As a result, mistakes occur in written and spoken English that can be avoided

easily. To ensure effective communication, both written and spoken, there are several English

grammar books available in the market. The question that probably bothers most of us is how

effective they are? Are they easy to comprehend?

We know referring to books that are difficult to follow can be very overwhelming and de-motivating

especially when they are being used to learn something new or something that we are struggling to

grasp. However, if the contents of the books are easy to understand, have enough exercises and

examples and provide answers to questions then they can be considered as useful reference

material. If they also provide additional content in the form of a CD that comes with the book, then

they can become an individual’s guide to communicating effectively for life.

Therefore while buying grammar books or CDs especially if you need them in a classroom kind of an

environment, besides keeping in mind the things mentioned, your best option is to buy those

recommended by your instructor.
