LINK UPPER-INTERMEDIATE TCHR BK

Intermediate to Upper-intermediate. For teenagers and young adults. Link Intermediate is the first part of a two-level course. It provides an attractive and motivating link between elementary and advanced courses. Link is a comprehensive course that offers a clear, balanced approach to learning English. The units of the Course Book are of a manageable length and all twenty units can be completed in one school year. The number of hours spent on each unit will largely depend on individual teaching situations. However, each unit is expected to take approximately two to four hours of class teaching time. Key features: • carefully-structured vocabulary and grammar tasks that provide students with a thorough foundation for further studies • thematically-based units that will attract student’s attention • practical links between the reading, writing, speaking and listening sections • carefully structured tasks that prepare students for eventual FCE study • review units to check student''s progress • clear and easy-to-understand grammar reference with explanations and example sentences at the appropriate level • interesting project work for each unit that stimulates student''s interest • There are twenty units and five review units in the Course Book. The contents pages provide a summary of the main grammatical and lexical items taught in the book, as well as details of types of tasks in the reading, listening, speaking and writing sections. Each four-page unit covers all skills, and special attention has been paid to recycling vocabulary and grammar in the tasks and in the reading, listening, speaking and writing sections. The length and difficulty of texts and tasks has been carefully structured so that students work from shorter texts with fewer questions to texts that are more challenging later in the book. There is a two-page review after every section (four units), which further recycles the material taught in that section. This attractive and clearly laid out book will enable students and teachers to see at a glance what is being taught in each unit.
