Betty Azar

A staple in English language teaching for more than three decades, the series contains dozens of books and is widely used throughout the globe.

[1] Azar is a proponent of grammar-based teaching in which grammar serves as the starting point and foundation for the development of all language skills — speaking, listening, writing, and reading.

[6] In 2017, TESOL International Association named the Betty Azar Travel Grant for Practicing ESL ESL/EFL Teachers in her honor.

This grant helps pay for participants to travel to the annual TESOL conference.

The Site was to officially shut down on Saturday, October 31, 2020, although it remained operational until Tuesday, November 10, 2020.
