This is part of a three-level course designed to meet the needs of today`s adult learners, concentrating on themes, language and learning styles which are relevant to adults. The course places a particular emphasis on fluency and productive skills, while providing extensive practice of language forms. At each level "True to Life" offers: tasks and content which aim to engage the interest of adult learners throughout the course; the opportunity for learners to contribute their own knowledge, experience and creativity; cyclical review and development in each unit; a wide range of cross-cultural themes; dual level recordings for many of the listening tasks, for flexibility and challenge; and a Visual Dictionary component in the Personal Study Workbook, for vocabulary development.
