American English as a second language, or by teachers of ESL in their classes. It contains lessons on pronunciation and grammar. This book will explain when you use “The,” “A,” “Make,” “Do,”

are followed by another verb ending in “ING.” Many of my students asked for more information about those verbs with prepositions – those that can be separated from their prepositions and those
that can’t. I’ve illustrated these verbs with many examples.You can use the book with or without a teacher. This book answers many of the questions that my students have asked me. Chapter. 1
