About this ebook

Intermediate Verbs is the second ebook workbook in the series Let’s Play English. ESL Intermediate Verbs is the continuation from ESL Beginner Verbs, including a review of the Present, Past, Future tenses, and negation with an emphasis on verbs “be, do, have, and go.” As ESL Intermediate Verbs is the next step to acquiring verb comprehension, it will focus primarily on the Continuous and Perfect tenses. As well, ESL Intermediate Verbs will also explore Irregular verbs and their proper usage. The goal of ESL Intermediate Verbs is to establish a progression in the evolution of verb knowledge and sentence structure as a building process to allow a fast and easy comprehension of the English language. With our user-friendly approach to verb explanations, practical exercises are provided after each lesson, as well as an answer page at the end of workbook to facilitate a better understanding of the lessons presented. ESL Intermediate Verbs will provide a solid base for verb construction to help the transition towards ESL Advanced Verbs. You will enjoy learning English using the ESL Intermediate Verbs both as a reference guide and study tool. Use the highlighter or the underline option on your eReader when answering the practical exercises.
