A Teachers´ Grammar: The Central Problems of English

A Teachers´ Grammar is the new revised edition of English as a Foreign Language – R.A. Close´s classic introduction to English grammar.
A Teachers´ Grammar introduces the fundamental concepts of English grammar to all teachers of English as a foreign or second language. It should be read by all teachers before they start explaining grammar in the classroom.
While most grammar books list a mass of detail, Close argues that the grammar of English is a matter of relatively few, but very powerful, distinctions.
