CHICAGO, March 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- With schools
closing across the country due to the Coronavirus, Vocabulary
for Champions: Over 2,000 Words and Activities to Improve Your
Reading, Writing, Speaking, Test-taking, and Resume-building
Skills from Threshold Publishing is a comprehensive, yet
affordable, vocabulary workbook that is a great way for students to
stay abreast of their studies. For only $8.00 the complete workbook can be downloaded and

According to Publishers Weekly... "Longtime teacher
Oswald assembles a genuinely useful and enjoyable
vocabulary-building guide….This breezy, fast-moving, guide can help
anyone looking to build their word power." Additionally, Midwest
Book Review states… "Expertly organized and presented… making
it ideal for use with middle school students, high schoolers, and
adults, and a valued addition to personal, school, and community
library Education & Vocabulary Building collections."
Without a strong vocabulary, a person's educational and
employment opportunities are limited, especially in today's
fast-paced, competitive, and global society. With study after
study showing the correlation between an extensive vocabulary and
higher socio-economic status, the need for a strong vocabulary has
never been more important.
Great for or anyone looking to improve their vocabulary,
including English language learners, Oswald's book is not meant to
be just another vocabulary book but an inspirational and practical
vocabulary-building tool grounded in the knowledge that an improved
vocabulary can transform lives, help people perform better in
school and on college entrance exams; perform better on employment
applications, and acquire an edge over others with whom they will
compete in life. The book contains over 2,000 words, quizzes, and
word puzzles to help master important vocabulary along with Greek
and Latin roots and commonly misused words. Unlike other vocabulary
books, Oswald's book also includes core subject-area vocabulary,
economics and personal finance vocabulary, and resume-building
vocabulary, leading Publishers Weekly to state…"Teens and
adults at all stages of life can benefit from this well-constructed
workbook for learning mid-level English vocabulary." The
subject-area vocabulary is especially useful with all the school
students are currently missing.
