Book excerpt: natural English is a syllabus strand which enables students to integrate frequent, natural language into their language framework. Students learn to use real language naturally, through thinking and rehearsal time, confidence-building practice, and task-centred speaking. The listening syllabus teaches students how to listen. A slot-in listening booklet features the tapescripts plus decoding and pronunciation exercises. Teacher's Book lesson plans, a product of the authors' teacher training expertise, talk teachers through the course materials. Teacher's Book chapters cover teaching principles, techniques, and ideas, plus a selected bibliography. Humour engages and motivates through cartoons, and the listening and reading material.
