This book is intended to develop composition skills. These include producing and developing ideas, choosing and using the most effective forms of expression and checking and improving drafts.

"The Company Words Keep" is a practical and thought-provoking guide for language teachers, showing how the latest insights into "language chunks" can lead to learners acquiring natural and fluent English. Here is a new methodology based on the Lexical Approach, a practical theory of language, of learning - and of teaching.

This post includes 6 news items taken from the Mary Glasgow Magazine. All items include a news story written in five different levels of English (EL, Pre-Int, Int, Upp-Int and Adv). Each level has an accompanying audio recording, so the stories can be listened to as well. I have converted the files to pdf with the audio embedded into each page. I have also included doc and mp3 files seperately for flexibility. Both techers and learners, don't miss this. It'd be a shame.
