games hav ebeen strategically designed; if fun is the
name of the game, then look no further!

Varied, versatile, portable and fun! These bright,
practical cards and games which can be used at all levels liven
up a class whilst increasing opportunities to practise language
skills, and for the tutor to circulate, to clarify, and to assess
learning. The variety of possible activities they offer is an enormous
help in mixed-ability teaching as learners can carry out different
tasks at different levels within the same game. Students lose their
inhibitions and become more actively involved in the learning process.
As we know too well, adults vote with their feet. If their learning
is rewarding and enjoyable, theyll stay!

Looking at this latest batch of MLG Games, its
really not so much a case of listing the possible games and activities,
as once more expressing admiration of the enormous variety of ideas
available, opening up a whole new dimension for group and pair work
on a refreshingly basic level .

These materials proved to be very successful with
a mixed ability GCSE group. The feedback was very positive:very
good and useful" you learn many new words. These comments
reflected my impression of their obvious enthusiasm when engaged
in the tasks. These materials are a valuable additional resource
to a text-book diet.

EFL Gazette
A boon to teachers! The resources certainly gave
me a host of ideas and kept my groups occupied on their own for
half-hours at a time. They provided a fun, relaxing way to work
on accuracy and fluency, while allowing me to slip in notions and
functions as well.
Beginners of all ages were amused by them,
and perhaps a little relieved by their simplicity, and intrigued
by their building-block potential. I find I can talk less and the
learners can talk to and practically teach each other. The teacher
saves time talking time and preparation time, of materials
as well as lessons. One group asked if they could take the cards
home to use as a party game and if this isnt proof
of their appeal, what is?
