54. Teacher’s Book

55. •The book gives insufficient or very little information
about the rationale,
• The index used in the teacher’s book is barely not helpful, and does not
provide enough guidence for teachers,
• Although correct answers are included
in the book (p.33-2,7, etc.),
suggestions/ possible answers
are ignored.

56. •Tape-scripts of many activities are included in the book;
however, some tape-scripts which are even included in the
course book are not included in the teacher’s book(p.69).

57. •There are many additional activities at
the end of the teacher’s book
