About B2 grammar worksheets
At B2 learners already know the main tenses; the challenge is accuracy, range and choosing the right form for meaning. Worksheets cover third and mixed conditionals, wish and if only, modals of deduction in the past, the causative have or get something done, future continuous and perfect, non-defining relative clauses, advanced passives and reporting verbs such as suggest, deny and warn.
Tasks focus on transformation and nuance: key word transformations, open cloze, error correction, rewriting sentences to change emphasis and short writing tasks. These are the skills tested in the Use of English part of Cambridge B2 First.
Answer keys and teacher copies are provided. Print on A4 or US Letter, download as PDF, or share a class link for online completion without accounts.
Teaching tips: B2 grammar worksheets
- Show learners that key word transformations test pairs of structures, such as active and passive, and teach them to spot the pattern before writing.
- Use mixed conditionals with learners' real life stories, for example a decision that changed where they live now.
- Ask learners to explain why a sentence is wrong before correcting it; the explanation reveals whether they have really understood.
- Set timed exam-style sheets only after untimed practice, so learners build accuracy before speed.
