A new three-level series in which students learn and practise the words and phrases they need to know at Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced levels. Each level of Oxford Word Skills enables students to:See how the words are used in spoken and written English, Practise using the vocabulary, Revise what they have learned, Study at home or in class, Learn the words as preparation for major exams, Use the 'test yourself' card to check which words and phrases they know, and which ones need more practice.
This book uses many authentic sources such as factual texts, newspaper articles, features and TV schedules, instruction manuals, everyday signs, stories, quizzes, emails and diary entries. Students are encouraged to read material on different levels and in different ways, such as reading for gist, scanning, skimming, comprehension, analysing structure, summarising and shadow reading.
Not only for reading comprehension - but for extra creativity during lessons.

When you have strong study habits, you learn more in class, get more out of your homework, and, best of all, have a much easier time completing any type of assignment. How to Study for Success lets you build those habits and master essential study skills that will help you become a better student.
