4.0 out of 5 stars
good pre-int coursebook for Asian students or as a resource,
By A Customer
This review is from: Handshake: Student's Book: A Course in Communication (Paperback)
This book is wonderful for explaining Western culture to non-Westerners. It focuses on a lot of non-traditional EFL areas such conversation strategies. Some good speaking resources in the back of the book.It's not so useful with European / South American students as a lot of the activities on intonation or social skills such as interrupting are 'the same in my language'. It's also a good book to have as a resource which can be dipped into.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A compendium of colourful commercial content and context!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Handshake: Student's Book: A Course in Communication (Paperback)
Handshake is the bible for any person, whether they be teacher or student, with a focus on the business world and requirements of the professional! The pages are attractively laid out and easy to follow as each category is clearly defined, for example presenting information or expressing emotions. Each unit incorporates an extensive summary of the grammar covered, complete with exercises set in relevant business contexts. I have used this book on a regular basis for a range of pre-intermediate to advanced students (even of a most discerning nature) and all have been suitably impressed by the relevance of the contents to their business and social lives! As a business teacher for the last ten years, both in the UK and abroad, I cannot rate this book highly enough and would recommend this as the first book to accompany either teacher or student on their journey into the world of business communication!

3.0 out of 5 stars
range of interactions spoken in English,
By W Boudville - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Handshake: Student's Book: A Course in Communication (Paperback)
The book aids a student who perhaps is not fluent in English, and who has just entered the workforce. Its chapters deal with various situations typical during interactions with others. Much of this relates to conversational give and take; the polite banter that you should be acquainted with.
Some sections deal with the written word. Like comprehending the gist of a few paragraphs. There are many questions in each chapter that reinforce the lessons. |
