				I know this is mostly based on an individual�s opinion, but what Grammar books would you recommend for use in a classroom of varying levels.
 
 
I have some really basic kids and some returnees.  What would be the "book of all books" to get that would cover all areas I would encounter in Korea?
 
 
I am not looking for a workbook.  But a reference book to look up rules in.
 
 
Thanks! |

				| For kids, I would use "The Grammer Lab"  published by Oxford.  It is interesting for kids and well written.  For adults,  I would use  "English Grammer in Use" published by  Cambridge.  I use both as a supplement to other activities and text books. |

				(Like Koreans need to memorize more grammar rules.)
 
 
This may not be a popular answer but.... use your head. 
 
 
Any grammatical rules you don't use regularly aren't necessary in hogwans. |
