Buy this book if you want to improve your score at TWE

I had to learn some grammar to take the TOEFL TWE, and this book was an excellent choice. It is very well written and edited. It is also very easy to read. It would be great if it had all the answers to the exercises, but it deserves five stars anyway.

friendly and very useful, with goods exercises

Just I want to tell that this book is very useful with a lot of exercises. I am from Chile, so this book is for us, the foreign studetns. Until this moment I have learnt too much. But, this book could be answer for the exercises, will be better.
