    As an English teacher, I can attest that there is nothing like a good book to help you take your English up a level. I am not familiar with most of these texts, probably because I am in the U.S. I use the Grammar in Context series and Grammar Explorer series and love them both for grammar. Grammar and Beyond 4 is excellent for advanced learners who want to improve their writing.

    Hi David! Thanks a lot for your suggestions!
    I've got a big challenge at the moment and I'd really appreciate any recommendations. I must teach a group of students, aged 15-17 who have an A1-A2 level of English. Most of the course books I know and have used are secondary, 5-6 level textbooks. I cannot use their elementary level, since the content is designed for 11-12-year-olds. So, I am trying to find a good A2 level book with content that would be more appropriate for older students. I have seen some samples of Oxford English File and New Headway, or Cambridge Empower;but they seem to be too much adult learner oriented, and less teenager focused. Any thoughts and suggestions would be of great help. Thanks!

    English File starts from Beginner level, not from Elementary:)
    I try and study English with this book. It's very good but it has some little mistakes especially in tests. The mistakes are in Pronunciation keys (incorrect answers to tasks on a stressed syllable). I don't know why... I bought this book in a licensed store in Moscow. Nevertheless, it isn't a problem. These books (Teacher's Book, Student's Book, and Workbook) are impressive. I have no cause to complain, because I found those mistakes by myself:)

      Good comment Sir. I find the difference between Beginner and Elementary to be negligible so I feel the Elementary book is suitable for most students to start with. I am not aware of any mistakes with stressed syllables due to the fact that I always ensure that my students are pronouncing words accurately. There can sometimes be a difference in stress from one accent to another too. I think your English must be very good so I don't think for you it's a problem! 😊 David

      By the way Russians do mistakes in their home language😅 They wonder why this syllable is stressed and not that one! Because they get used to an incorrect emphasis😄 It's almost like "garage" in English, I think... There are three different ways for pronouncing as I remember...
