What they say:
"Issues in English 2". TESL-EJJune 2006, Volume 10, Number 1
"If you and your students loved the original Issues then you will find, as I did, that its companion Issues in English 2, is a fantastic addition to the online resources. It is designed for learners aged 12 to adult, with over 700 hours of interactive vocabulary, grammar, comprehension, reading and writing activities, including all the same types of exercises as the original - plus some great new ones. I particularly like the new Listening to Identify Errors activity which includes listening, recalling and writing in small achievable chunks ... The design, layout and navigation are very user friendly and encourage good learning habits." Dorothy Waterhouse Professional Connections.
