The Aspire series has a communicative approach with an emphasis on learning language in real life contexts and on producing language in a broad range of speaking and writing situations. Consequently, its approach mirrors the functional descriptors of the CEFR as well as its broad emphasis on being able to communicate in a range of realistic situations. Aspire Upper-Intermediate is mapped throughout against descriptors at the B2 Vantage level.
Aspires grammar and vocabulary syllabus encourages the linguistic competences needed for students to be able to communicate successfully. In particular, the Grammar and Vocabulary tasks and features, as well as the unit Reviews, provide information and practice necessary for students to build their understanding and use.
The emphasis on the four skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening in Aspire reflects the same emphasis in the CEFR. The Spotlight features throughout the course build a range of specific skills and competences.
The Everyday English section in each alternate unit of Aspire introduces and practises key functional areas of language which mirror those in the CEFR. It also encourages students to use English in realistic role play scenarios.
