Speakout. Upper Intermediate. Students' Book with MyEnglishLab Access Code (+ DVD)

Lessons are designed to consolidate language and act as a springboard for further speaking and writing tasks. Each unit follows the pattern: an introductory lead-in page with learning objectives; two main input lessons covering grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and skills work; a functional lesson, which develops useful communication skills and includes strategies for developing speaking and listening skills; a motivating skills consolidation lesson based on a BBC DVD clip. These act as a springboard for further speaking and writing tasks. The unit culminates with a page of Lookback exercises. Each Students' Book has: ten to 12 units with 90 to 120 hours of teaching material (depending on level); comprehensive Language Bank with detailed explanations and extra practice.
