In this course, you will practise your fluency and learn to talk about lots of everyday topics – for example, when you first meet someone and need to ask them about their personal life or when you are at work and need to talk to colleagues or your manager. You will learn to talk about the news, songs, culture and places. Your grammar will improve. And you will also focus on your pronunciation especially the individual sounds in English – for example, when to make a short vowel sound or a long one, how to pronounce plurals, past tense and auxiliaries such as ‘do’, ‘does’, ‘has’ and ‘had’.
