How a lesson works

  1. 1. Presentation

    Read the rule and the examples. Notice the form before you produce it.

  2. 2. Vocabulary and reading

    Study the words in a text. Look up only the ones that block the meaning.

  3. 3. Practice

    Listen, answer, and do the speaking circuit: each line, twice. This part does not pass the lesson. It is the part that takes time.

  4. 4. Production

    Write first. Open the model after you have tried.

  5. 5. Assessment

    Ten questions on this lesson. 80% opens the next one.

By the end you can

  • Write a precise email, a formal letter, and a claim you did not see yourself.
  • In a meeting, hold one point in focus and present without reading.
  • Choose tone and emphasis for a professional reader.
