📗 Libro en inglés MATRIX: WORKBOOK: INTERMEDIATE LEVEL

Pre-Intermediate to Upper-Intermediate. For 16-19 year-olds. Matrix is a series that prepares students for secondary school-leaving exams. Matrix develops grammar, vocabulary and the four main skills within an exam context. The integration of practice and extension material supports mixed-ability classes. It also means that the course can be used flexibly, depending on the number of teaching hours available. Each unit is theme-related while grammar is presented and practised in a way that allows students to reflect on their understanding of English, and see it fall into place. Exam training is highlighted throughout the course via 'Exam training' boxes which offer students practical advice on developing both study skills and examination techniques. Extensive vocabulary development increases students' active and passive knowledge. Frequent consolidation and recycling exercises build confidence and help students to add interest and variety to their English. A grammar reference and extensive wordlist with definitions and examples give extra support for students and teachers. The engaging texts provide authentic input for the development of students' reading and listening skills, and provide cultural information. • Speaking is practised through a wide range of controlled and freer activities, encouraging students both to take part in more structured discussions and to express their own ideas. • Listening texts are based on authentic materials and feature a variety of speakers and accents. • The Workbook contains further practice and extension of vocabulary, reading skills, writing skills and exam training.
