Model texts are introduced after the students have tried to do a piece of writing so that the model becomes a resource against which students can compare their own texts and from which they can improve what they have written. There is an Introduction to the teacher and answers where appropriate.

Each Just Skills book has been written with the same teaching approach as the Just Right course based on the same corpus of material; repackaged according to skills content presented in a more learner-centred way.
