Skills in English: Speaking Level 2: Course Book

This course builds the skills that help you to speak in English in class and tutorials. At Level 2, you learn how to: — use signpost words and phrases; — say you don't know; — ask about feelings; — give simple informal advice; — make an arrangement; — compare two things; — express certainty; — express apology; — express an opinion; — talk about information you have heard; — talk about past and present customs; — talk about arrangements; — speak on the telephone; — narrate a story; — and explain rules. As well as preparing students for entry into English-medium study, the Skills in English Course is ideal for students who wish to improve their scores in skills-based examinations for university entry requirements, such as the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). Rather than focusing on exam preparation, Skills in English teaches the necessary skills as part of a systematic programme of language development.
