"Texts must be interesting enough for students to want to read them in their own language. Otherwise, how can we expect students to want to read them in English?" This is the authors'' golden rule when they choose texts and topics for every level of New English File. It ensures you get material that learners will enjoy reading and will want to talk about. Texts such as ''Are there really 31 hours in the day?'' really help to generate opinion and discussion. They create a desire to communicate. So, having created the desire, New English File then helps you to develop learners'' communication skills. One way it does this is with a strong focus on pronunciation. Research shows that poor pronunciation is a major contributor to breakdowns in communication (Jennifer Jenkins: The Phonology of English as an International Language, Oxford University Press). New English File integrates pronunciation into every lesson - the ''little and often'' approach - but that''s not all. The unique English File Sounds Chart puts a picture to each sound in the phonetic alphabet, so learners find it easier to remember the sounds and, ultimately, improve their pronunciation.

Store Description

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
