ADVANCED WRITING SKILLS incorporates new concepts for teaching students writing at an advanced level. Language is treated under the three headings of functions, topic notionsand grammar, with the aim of training the students to express themselves clearly and accurately, particularly in writing.The material is suitable for intensive and non-intensive courses and a key is provided for the use of students working on their own. It therefore provides the teacher with material suitable for many different learning situations.
Like its companion volume Advanced Writing Skills, the present book focuses on the needs of the learner at the advanced level. At this level, grammatical accuracy alone is simply not enough for successful communication, particularly in speech. Advanced Speaking Skills takes as its keynote the concept of appropriateness - the choice of language according to such factors as to whom one is speaking, the moods of the speakers, etc. The book thus opens up to the advanced learner the opportunity of better reflecting his own attitudes and reacting to those of others.
