Making Sense of Phrasal Verbs presents a selection of the most useful and frequently used phrasal verbs in the English language. It avoids the use of grammatical classifications because such classifications are often more complicated and difficult than the phrasal verbs they are used to teach. Instead, the aim is to increase the learners confidence by presenting phrasal verbs in a lively and straightforward way using illustrations and question-prompts.
Making Sense of Phrasal Verbs can be used for self-study, for pairwork, for conventional class or group teaching, and as a reference book. It is intended for intermediate students of English as a second or foreign language. Students studying for the First Certificate Examination will find the book especially useful.
