About 100 Phrasal Verbs To Learn For Life: Vocabulary
Product Description If you’re a high-intermediate to advanced student of English as a foreign or second language, and you sometimes feel like giving up on phrasal verbs, you’re not alone. Phrasal verbs can be a nightmare for EFL/ESL students of all ages and levels, and the lists of phrasal verbs with meanings and examples you find on the Internet aren't always useful. 100 Phrasal Verbs to Learn for Life, written by best-selling author Luiz Otávio Barros, offers a fresh approach to helping B2, C1, TOEFL/IELTS, and Cambridge First/Advanced students learn phrasal verbs more effectively. Here’s what makes the book unique: • Instead of teaching hundreds of low-frequency phrasal verbs, we focus on 100 really common ones and teach them really well. • The phrasal verbs are grouped by topic so you can remember them more easily. • Each phrasal verb is supported by an average of 15 examples so you can really understand it. • All of the 1,500 example sentences were adapted from authentic sources (newspapers, blogs, TV shows, etc.) so you can learn how each phrasal verb is used in the real world. • The number of meanings per lesson is limited so you don’t get confused. • 100 Phrasal Verbs to Learn for Life is light on terminology so you don't get distracted by terms like "type 1" or "separable/inseparable." • There are dozens of exercises to help you check your progress - also available online, free of charge! Phrasal verbs can be easier to learn than you think, especially at this level. So, why not give this book a chance and click/tap on look inside? 100 Phrasal Verbs to Learn for Life might be just what you need. Review It's quite simple, actually: this is the best book on phrasal verbs for learners of English at B2-C1 level I have ever seen. It's user-friendly, clear, logically organized, and there are real examples to illustrate everything. As the author says in the introduction, jargon is kept to a minimum, so the focus is really on learning what the phrasal verbs tackled in the book mean and how they're used, and there are great exercises at the end of every section to check your progress. If you're looking for a book that will help you (finally!) get your head around phrasal verbs and how they work, look no further. I couldn't recommend 100 Phrasal Verbs to Learn for Life more. Higor Cavalcante, BRAZ-TESOL President 2019-2020 From the Author When I wrote The Only Academic Phrasebook You'll Ever Need in late 2016, I had no idea it would go on to sell almost 30,000 copies and become a best seller in five countries! So, encouraged by the success of my first Amazon book, in 2019, I embarked on a new self-publishing journey. I've always felt that our profession makes phrasal verbs harder to learn than they actually are. Most books on phrasal verbs teach too many verbs, include too many meanings, and use too much terminology. No wonder most students end up so frustrated! So, drawing on my 30-year experience as teacher, teacher educator, and international author, I set out to write something completely fresh. "No point coming up with more of the same!" I kept telling myself. Now, looking at the finished book, I think "less is more" is the best way to describe its teaching philosophy. By focusing on only 100 high-frequency phrasal verbs, I was able to provide about 15 examples of each one, as well as a lot of useful information about the words and patterns that these verbs tend to attract in everyday use. As the author of this book, I want you to "feel" each phrasal verb, really understand how it works, and use it confidently in real-life communication. This seems like an ambitious goal, I know, but it is one definitely worth pursuing. I am confident that 100 Phrasal Verbs to Learn for Life is a step in that direction. Thank you for your time! :-)
