I have a few books for sale that are great if you teach writing classes or individuals who need to improve their writing skills.
For younger learners (middle school or younger if they are higher level readers and writers of English):
- BOOST! Writing 3. Student workbook with CD
Glossy full color book with photos and illustrations. Students complete exercises directly in the workbook. Book contains various units, teaching students how to organize writing and such aspects as writing topic sentences, writing compare/contrast sentences, writing introductions and conclusions etc.

For adult students or maybe older teenage students:
- Writing from Within. Published by Cambridge Univ. Press. Excellent general book for teaching writing, with structured units and stand-alone units that can be photocopied and given as handouts. Also very useful as a supplementary book to a regular reading or comprehension class textbook.
You can check out a description of the book here:

For advanced students of academic writing:
- Mosaic 2 Writing. Published by McGraw Hill. Comes with audio cassette tape.
Designed to prepare students for academic content. Covers higher level aspects of academic writing such as evaluating drafts, organizing a causal chain essay etc. Various activities with skill-building exercises to boost students' academic success. Includes placement tests and chapter quizzes, "focus on testing" sections, writing assignments etc.
All books in excellent condition and pages are unmarked. Only W7000 each (very cheap at around 30% or under 30% of retail prices for the new books, which you can find in the links).
Located in Seoul but would be willing to post out (buyer pays postage). |
