DAY BY DAY - Oral Skills Practice Book for EFL Students at Intermediate Level

DAY BY DAY has been prepared to provide oral skills practice with an emphasis on formulating and asking questions. The booklet is supplemental in nature and uses as its "theme" quotidian activities found in the United States, both job and non-job related. The illustrations help to provide the graphic key and stage setting. DAY BY DAY includes exercises with that specific purpose in mind, as well as those that encourage students to express themselves in a semi-controlled manner.
 
 
The Glossary which is appended at the end of the text is intended to facilitate ease of reference, as well as serve as a useful tool for whatever vocabulary development activities the teacher may want to undertake. Basically, DAY BY DAY has been prepared at the intermediate/high-intermediate level by maintaining a 2,000/3000-word level based on the LADDER BOOK WORD LIST. At times teachers may find that they will need to clarify or expand upon some of the definitions, hopefully by making maximum use of the contextual setting of the words.

American Accent Training Grammar by Ann Cook - Barrons

1- American Accent Training Grammar by Ann Cook - Barrons

This book and audio compact disc program instructs students of English as a second language in the elements of grammar, presenting a grammar review that emphasizes speech and correct pronunciation.
The compact discs include spoken dictations for each of the book's ten chapters. Students start by writing out what they hear, and then comparing what they have written with the book's printed version. In the process, they begin learning the elements of grammar, staring with the simple present tense of the verb "to be" and progressing to all other tenses and parts of speech.
Students gradually learn how to use English words and pronounce them properly in grammatically correct sentences. Following each chapter's introductory sentence, they are given a brief story. A short test at the end of each chapter helps them determine their learning progress. The dictations start out quite simple and become progressively more difficult from one chapter to the next. The book is filled with charts and illustrations to facilitate students' learning progress.
