This book is on English Central's EduGeek Top 10 Books to Push Yourself and Your Students list!

Written by Nick Hall and John Shepheard, this is one of the few grammar books that exclusively uses the guided discovery approach. Using interesting and often humourous texts and prompts, students are guided toward understanding the forms, uses and meanings of the English tenses and verb forms.

It is 'anti-grammar' because it avoids simply presenting students with rules to learn. Instead, students are encouraged to discover the rules of grammar for themselves by engaging in a wide variety of promblem-solving activities.

The innovative learning activities in this book have all arisen out of the authors' direct experience in the classroom.
