FOR THE LECTURER

This book will replace the notes you give at different levels every year. It will save you the time, effort and expense of compiling and photocopying notes.

You will have the security of knowing that your students have a comprehensive set of notes, which can be added to or omitted according to the level being taught.

These notes may be used in class for instruction or revision. The book may also be used independently by your students for self-study and homework tasks. Once taught, each section can simply be revised and updated each year, freeing you from having to re-teach it.
The main benefit is that you will be able to teach English in context. You will have the freedom to use whatever is current, relevant and of interest to your students.

They will have a constant source of reference and you will therefore be able to teach without having to stop for note-taking or lengthy explanations.
