Overview
Our General English and Intensive English courses are designed to help students make rapid progress in English, and focus on the four key language skills – reading, writing, listening and speaking – with lots of additional work on vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation.
Speakout textbook
Speakout is an English textbook, which is a contemporary approach to learning, with successfully-integrated media. The course is provided with downloadable podcasts and high-quality BBC DVD content, both of which give learners authentic rich content in English and a genuine global range of topics to capture the student’s interests. The course administers a collection of motivating and exciting activities and exercises which would give any learner or teacher a significant learning experience. It is excellent for self-learning access and for also an exciting class resource for teaching. The judging panel of ESU described Speakout’ as ‘excellent’, ‘a wonderful course’ and the best course of the year. There is also a unique collaborative creation between Pearson and the BBC, which highlights the best of both. It is a general English course with six level authentic material books from the BBC that help adult learners achieve confidence in all skill areas. The wide range of support material helps the learners bridge the gap between the classroom and the real world, which fulfils the diverse needs of learners in a variety of teaching situations.
