Enhanced Collins English Grammar & Composition 4, 4th Edition
Collins English Grammar and Composition 4th Edition is a carefully graded series spanning eight levels which aims to enable learners to master the rules of the English language. Current developments in cognitive psychology suggest that effective learning depends on a relaxed learning atmosphere, a combination of discovery learning and direct instruction, and a variety of tasks to suit the major learning styles. This series takes these insights into account to facilitate effective intervention in the teaching-learning of English grammar at the word, sentence and discourse levels. It also recognizes the importance of communication as a life skill and the key role of language in teaching and learning, as outlined in the National Curriculum Framework, 2023
