Abstrak

Eco Tense Game Book is an innovative learning resource designed to help university students—especially those majoring in economics—understand English tenses through interactive and contextualized activities. Combining linguistic structure with economic vocabulary, this book bridges grammar learning and real-world communication skills.

Each section presents clear explanations, examples, and practice tasks focused on verb tenses commonly used in economic discussions. The highlight of the book is “The Traveling Economist” board game, which turns tense practice into a dynamic classroom experience. Students travel through past, present, and future time zones, completing grammar-based challenges related to economic terms such as inflation, AI, investment, and trade.

By playing, discussing, and competing, learners not only strengthen their mastery of English tenses but also build confidence using language in professional and academic contexts. This book serves as a fun, meaningful bridge between grammar accuracy and economic literacy—making tense learning both engaging and purposeful.
