a textbook you like, a textbook you hate...

 

 I did not like Bonk's textbook, and find really helpfull "English grammar in use", Murphy
 

 And in my opinion the textbooks by Bonk are not bad... and I've also noticed that these new texbooks of a huge size with lots of pictures are worse than the old ones, because information there is given in a disorder. I could never learn by them at school, though the teaching was OK.
 

 I Hate Kuzovlev..

 

 I do like Enterprise and do hate our Ukrainian textbooks-they can't be described they're just something increadable.
 

 I like text-book by Bonk. I have been learning English for a year and a half and very pleased with it. In my opinion it is the best one for domestic study.
 

 I HATE KUZOBLEV TOO!!! I wonder, it s always in the Federal list of textbooks. It must be forbidden forever!!!
 

 Bonk is really logical and helpful, when you don't know where to begin. kuzovlev.....remember wasting my time with it the last two school years)
 

 I hate Arakin! It's the worst and the most stupid textbook in a whole world
 

 I really hate Arakin's book! it's a waste of time
 

 i don't completely agree with you. the first book with the phonetical course is very helpful, the other books are probably worse, but still it has smth to deal with.
 

 Murphy is really helpful, although deals with the most frequently used tenses only. I wish there was more information about prepositions in it.

Enterprise is good for teens. I like it.

Kuzovlev is really a strange book. No system at all.

I also dislike Headway: the book lacks good vocabulary sets, and grammar is mixed up.
 

 Murphy is my favourite one! but I hate Arakin textbook, it's so boring and all the tasks of the same type!(
 

 I learn by Arakin, but I heard that the language of this textbook is too difficult and differs from modern English.
As for teens I consider Click on to be the best textbook because the authors of Click on tried to realize the real aim of study - teaching children to communicate with people)
 

 Arakin does not teach you how to communicate in english, it teaches you how to pass an exam.Murphy on the contrary helped me a lot with the oral skills.
 

 Arakin is the worst textbook, I have ever seen!!!!!!! Bonk is really good, it gives the fundamentals!!!!!!
 

 I like "How english works", "English vocabulary in Use" and "English Grammar in Use" - they are awesome!
 

 As for teaching grammar I prefer Grammarway. There are different levels and u can choose a particular one suitable for your students. For developing other skills I can't recommend one book. To my mind, there should be one main course book (e.g. New new Headway or Cutting Edge For adults, Inside Out, Enterprise or Opportunities for teens, Market Leader for Business English ) plus u always should use some additional material from other books. For additional material English File is really helpful.
 

 i like Round up series 4 grammar...and Let's talk 4 speaking practice:)
 

 I hate Kuzovlev,it's useless...
 

 You know what they say - Arakin - KAKIN.
