Review: A Solid Choice - I have used this twice in summer ELL classes. It provides good grammer review, and I like how the academic vocabulary sections are set up. It has lots of varied excercises without being overwhelming. I don’t teach TOEFL prep, but this book woukd be at the top of my list for an ELL class or for extra work for ELLs. Review: Great textbook for individual study or tutoring - Great textbook for individual study or tutoring. Vocabulary is organized into topics that follow the typical reading (and other) assignments in TOEFL. Can be used for any kind of TOEFL prep, pbt, ibt, etc.
