  • Start from scratch - plan well-structured lessons and develop successful and effective teaching techniques
  • Focus on skills - from reading and writing, to listening and speaking, get your students sounding and feeling fluent
  • Get your head around grammar - teach students to put sentences together, recognise tenses and use adjectives and adverbs
  • All shapes and sizes - tailor your lessons to younger learners, one-to-ones, exam classes and Business English learners

Open the book and find:
