It will also be of interest to teachers of Adult Skills/Skills for Life/ basic skills students. The previous addition was also popular with teachers of students learning English as a second language and for teachers who teach basic skills to adults in the community, including apprentice students studying functional skills/ core skills/ essential skills in communication.

The overall purpose is to develop literacy skills as well as enhancing self-esteem and this book helps to deliver both of these objectives.
