An all-in-one series for English skills improvement

Improving English skills has never been easier and more stimulating! The Coursebook with MyEnglishLab is the ideal material to guide students throughout the entire learning process.

Practise while having fun

Several sections reflect learning approaches that combine the in-depth study of English skills with fun-filled and stimulating content. 

• Double-page  Scenarios at the end of each of the 12 units focus on different case studies. Students engage in a variety of preparation activities such as problem-solving and negotiating in order to perform a final extended speaking task (in groups or pairs). 
• Study Skills sections in each unit provide useful learning tips, give students a ready-made “how to succeed in my studies” toolkit and prepare students for success in academic life.
• “Meet the Expert” videos feature interviews with leading professionals and academics to challenge learners and provide practice in listening to extensive passages of authentic English.
