Reader Reviews
English is Fun with Us is a book that attracts us through different useful and entertaining teaching methods. If musical notes separately are so beautiful but not in perfection, when harmonising together they create a wonderful melody, in the right way and by the right composer. What strikes is how naturally and precisely theory is concretised in practice, therefore I strongly believe that this book will be of great help to us teachers of English as a second language acquisition.

Learning a foreign language does not mean only learning new words, syntax, morphology or lexicology, but in the meantime one need to become one with their culture, history and tradition. Therefore, I strongly recommend this book for all teachers of English as a foreign language, who have a passion for their profession and would love to become role model teachers for their students. Through the materials very kindly presented in this book, one can perceive the love and devotion her students had for the English language and their teacher, and this is the goal that most teacher should and have in their mind and soul.
— Elvira Peco
It is all about heart and soul, and that is exactly what I found in this book! The most interesting element is the connection between reality and imagination. This imaginary journey depicted in English is Fun with Us comes so vivid to reality that for an instance brought me so close to these real life venues in the most natural way. It is easier said than done but it is always true that “People passionate about teaching can change the world” and you are one of them.
