Summary: Good for non-native teachers
Comment: I was a bit disappointed with the ESL Miscellany. I found it to be overly simplistic, which may be a bonus to non-native English speakers who teach ESL, but for other readers it may be frustrating. The book does consist of many useful lists and groupings, but there is little to tie it together. This is definately not a 'one stop shopping' purchase for the ESL teacher, but rather a fill-in for groupings and lists that you do not have the time to compose for yourself.

Summary: ESL MISCELLANY
Comment: As an ESL teacher in a foreign country with little resources and materials I found this book invaluable. The content of this book is great for reference for you and your students. In addition, if you don't have a curriculum to work from, here it is. If you are teaching ESL here or abroad this is a MUST book for your library. I've purchased many an ESL MISCELLANY as gifts for friends entering the field.

Summary: Good grouping vocabluary
Comment: The ESL Miscellany groups words, phrases, and idioms by topics such as cooking, transportation, hotels, restaurants, medicine and health, etc. All together, there are sixty different topics. About six years ago--I was in graduate school; that's how I remember--there was a discussion on this list centering around the question, "If you could take just five books..., what would they be?" The ESL Miscellany rated very high on the list. My Vietnamese students who are studying to become beauticians find the vocabulary (classified under barber and beautician) very useful. I would recommend this book for those learners who need good book on vocabulary groupped by category.
