It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything!

Grammar! For many of us, the word triggers memories of finger-wagging schoolteachers, and of wrestling with the ambiguous and complicated rules of using formal language. But what is grammar? In fact, it's the integral basis of how we speak and write. As such, a refined awareness of grammar opens a world of possibilities for both your pleasure in the English language and your skill in using it, in both speech and the written word.

Worth giving it a go
This title is pretty much as described and will be very helpful for beginners. The style is varied and includes various sound effects. I believe it would keep a beginner interested without overwhelming.
Doing the exercises and answering questions questions is essential practice. The pdf is clear and helpful. Progression is assured if you practice and repeat each lesson until mastered, and only then go to the next one.
However, it is mostly based on an American style of communication, lots of chit chat. The Swedes are not really rude as some accuse them of being, but they are not big on yapping about nothing and wasting time. Still, it will help you learn Swedish and is fun to use with other students.
