An expert author team using the latest in language research and pedagogy ensure the course teaches English as it is really used.
The course is also informed by the Cambridge English Corpus, a multi-billion word collection of contemporary English. This means we can:
- identify words and phrases that occur most frequently - these are words that learners need to know.
- look at word patterns and make sure we teach the most useful phrases and collocates.
- make sure our materials contain appropriate content for a particular level or exam.
Authors Ben Goldstein and Ceri Jones specialise in teaching using images and video to enhance language learning, and used this insight to help create the course.
