American
Start with English, Second Edition
D. H. Howe
Beginning-Intermediate
This classic children's series is now available
in an exciting second edition. The original syllabus,
so popular and successful throughout the world,
is presented unchanged in an attractive new format
that will appeal to the next generation of young
students.
American Start with English is easy to teach from
and is enjoyable for children. It is the ideal series
to use with large classes where teaching conditions
are often more challenging.
The Student Books feature lovely, colorful illustrations
presented in a large format that children will find
easy to understand. The books introduce language
structures and vocabulary at a pace that young children
can easily follow. The spiraling curriculum provides
plenty of opportunity for review, consolidation,
and catching up.
The Teacher's Books contain lesson plans that are
easy to follow, with activities that allow students
to practice and consolidate the new language. This
is done through activities involving the whole class,
small groups, and pair work. A word list, a list
of flashcards with ideas for using them in class,
and a basic classroom language list are all included.
The Workbooks provide further practice of the lessons
presented in the Student Books.
The Cassettes feature cheerful children's voices
presenting the exercises, pronunciation activities,
and stories from the Student Books.
The colorful Picture Flashcards (available for Levels
1-3) present an illustration on one side with the
corresponding word on the reverse side. They are
ideal for teaching vocabulary, review, drills, and
games |

Description
A course to enable professionals to communicate
more confidently in English both in and out of the
workplace.
Who is it for?
- Professional people from all areas of
business. Key features
- Each of the 14 units is based around
a broad theme, such as Performance, Trade, and Negotiating,
as a means to focus on real business situations.
These include formal scenarios inside the workplace
as well as social exchanges. The units can be used
in any order to give maximum flexibility and to
match the specific requirements and availability
of students.
- Each unit has five sections: 'Did you know?' gives
interesting facts as a lead-in to the unit; 'Language
Work' gives appropriate language practice; 'Business
Skills', helps students develop the skills to deal
with real-life business situations; 'Meetings' provides
practice in participating in meetings; and 'Table
Talk' gives practice in social conversation.
- The emphasis in the Student's Book is on developing
listening and speaking skills. A wide variety of
speech production tasks help students to sound confident
and thus communicate more effectively.

sections invite students to analyse their knowledge
of structures and develop an awareness of language
patterns. The analysis is followed by one or more
exercises to place the structure in a business context.
A clear grammar summary is provided at the back
of the Student's Book.

around the world is used to explore different approaches
to business and to develop social and cultural awareness,
one of the most difficult areas for students at
this level.

develop conversational skills on topics unrelated
to their work, such as the family and leisure activities.

Headway,
New Edition Liz & John
Soars Beginning -
Advanced
- New Headway English Course now
provides a seamless syllabus progression from beginner
to advanced.
- It takes a clear and structured approach to grammar.
Grammatical structures are introduced in context,
with questions that encourage students to work out
the rules for themselves. A comprehensive 'Grammar
section' at the back of the Student's Books provides
a useful reference before, during or after the lesson.
- A well-defined vocabulary syllabus concentrates
on three key areas: learning new words in lexical
sets; acquiring good habits for learning vocabulary;
and developing vocabulary 'systems' such as sound
and spelling relationships.
- Integrated skills work is an important feature
of the course. In every unit the reading and listening
activities contextualize and bring together much
previously introduced language. The choice of interesting
texts, together with manageable, motivating tasks
ensure students develop fluency and accuracy in
all four skills.
- Supportive Teacher's Books at each level include
an explanation of the methodology, step-by-step
lesson guidance, additional activities, photocopiable
tests, cultural notes, and detailed answer keys.
- Teacher's Resource Books provide photocopiable
games and activities to supplement the main course
materials.
- Workbooks at each level offer a range of exercises
to revise and extend the grammar and vocabulary
covered in the Student's Book, plus extra related
input where appropriate. |
