Foreword

Oasis Applied Grammar and Composition is a series of Graded
English Grammar Books (I-X) for school students. Although
some people think that grammar teaching and learning is rigid
as well as tasteless, I hope this newly written grammar series
will really quench the deep thirst of learners. During the course
of 20 years of my experience in the field of English language
teaching, I have faced practical and actual difficulties because
of the lack of availability of proper teaching learning materials
for school children. This updated series has been designed to
inculcate the real and practicable skills for the young users of
English. ‘Learning by doing’is very effective to get the knowledge
and skill in English. All lessons included in each book of the
series have varieties of interesting, enjoyable, stimulating and
useful illustrations. Selected and situational pictures have been
included for balancing conceptual base. This series is useful to
both students as well as teachers. Inductive method is applied
to prepare each unit which makes the learning easier for not
only the fast tyros but also for slow learners.

I thank Mrs. Laxmi Karki who encouraged me to address the
real demand of the students throughout Nepal. I would like to
thank Oasis Publication Pvt. Ltd. for publishing this series. I
cannot stay without thanking Oasis Desktop Group (Mr. Ramesh
Bhattrai) for the computer typing and setting.

Finally, I am grateful to all the personalities who helped to
prepare and publish this new series.

Constructive comments, suggestions and feedback are always
welcome for further development of the series in its upcoming
edition.
