Not a fan but a good book for the right student
I hate to give this a less than optimal review as it clearly is a book full of valuable vocabulary- I’m just not a fan of the lay out. I’ve used picture vocabulary books in the past and will continue with that path. I felt there were too many words crammed on each page, not enough examples for each word (and half of them don’t have any used in an example) and the exercises are very short and don’t really allow you to really practice the words. I find it hard to remember all the words on one page with little practice before your on to the next page. It’s not the books fault- I’d say I’m a visual leaner and learn/REMEMBER new words best with images versus just word explanations. Also I wasn’t a fan of the pronounciation guide provided- I found myself looking up online how to pronounce certain words which defeats the purpose.
