    Reviews of the “Study It” Series/

    "It’s obviously an amazing learning tool” - Canada AM, National Morning Show

    Study "It": English as a Second Language series is an engaging textbook for teaching non-native English speakers. It takes advantage of the format to include video and audio in a way that supports the lessons and never feels added on as an "enhancement." The textbook uses a number of different assessment formats to allow users to test themselves throughout the book and see their scores. The book even uses the Note function effectively for long-form answers. While the content of the book is challenging, it makes learning grammar easy and fun. - 2015 Digital Book Award Review 

    “The Study It textbooks are a set of interactive English language multi-touch textbooks that are a fraction of the cost of a paper textbook” - Digital Journal 

    The Study It ESL textbook series has been awarded the QED Certification. The QED stands for Quality, Excellence, Design. It is the seal of approval of ebooks and enhanced books. All recipients of the QED have passed a thorough, independent 13-point quality assurance test. - QED Panel
