No! I have not made a typo error in the title of my review!You already know that ESL stands for English as a Second Language. E*F*L, in this instance, stands for "English as a FIRST Language".From time to time I am asked to teach at colleges and schools here in California and overseas. This often involves me in marking student's papers/essays. It pains me to admit that some of the worst examples of written English are to be found among students for whom English is their FIRST language.The opening paragraph of the "Book Description" (above) says it all.So, whether English is your first or second language and written English is not one of your strengths, buy this book! Borrow it if you don't have the money to buy it. Do whatever it takes for you to access, read and employ the lessons given in this book. As you put into practice what you learn, you will begin to smile a little more - your grades will have improved!HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for all students and some teachers too!
