Bibliography
The textbook is Total English by Mark Foley and Diane Hall, A2, published by Pearson-Longman, 2007.
The textbook includes, apart from the student’s book which we do every class, also a set of audio cassettes, CD’s, a workbook for grammar and vocabulary revision, CD-ROM with some make-up material, DVD, video, and the textbook website, www.longman.com/totalenglish
I would also recommend Raymond Murphy’s Essential Grammar in Use for extra grammar practice.
