What, How and Why: A Manual of Better English, Paperback / softback Book

What, How and Why: A Manual of Better English Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

While tutoring a twenty-five school ‘failure’, Peter Inson began to appreciate widespread concerns about the poor literary standards of many young people in the UK.

Attention seemed to be directed towards examinations and ways of impressing examiners rather than crucial skills that underpin an educated life.

Faced with the idea of tutoring a school reject and a school refuser, Peter had to find ways to engage them so he adapted ideas from car manuals and progressive methods of teaching. This is a book that engages students directly with openness, honesty and respect and it maximises their chances of getting things right and finding the confidence to take the next step.

It is designed to be used as a class text, a reference book for teachers, tutors and parents, and is jam-packed full of resources and further reading.
