 Excellent EFL Speech Communications Book October 2, 2009
Hsinchu Steve (Taiwan)
This book has been well received in various universities here in Taiwan for teaching Speech Communications: straightforward and practical. It would be a good stepping stone for those who would later also benefit from becoming involved in a Toastmasters International chapter within their country.

This textbook has made my life much simpler in my first year to teach speech to high school students. The text is organized and easy to understand so that it provides a great outline from which to work.
 Read the Fine Print February 6, 2009

Read the fine print when purchasing a used book. If this is a book with questing and answer sections some writing may mean the entire book except maybe one or two pages are already filled in. Not a problem if you want someone elses opinion, but definitely a problem if those section are being used by the professor to test your knowledge of the topic.
