The Vital Role of Writing in English Language Learning

In today's world, English language learners are required more than ever to demonstrate writing skills. Think of text messages, social media comments, product reviews, and of course emails, for starters.

With 120 writing exercises, the book is aimed at helping students of all ages and skill levels improve their reading comprehension. To help teachers select the best materials for their students' level, they are divided into categories based on the CEFR. Additionally, example responses are included after each one so that students know exactly what is expected of them.

For whom is this book intended?
