Synopsis

English Panorama is a two-level general English course for adult learners at post certificate level. It will be used by those who wish to pursue their English studies for professional or academic reasons, or for personal enjoyment. Each unit focuses on a differnet genre or style of written or spoken English, such as sports reports, letters, telephone messages. Grammar structures which cause difficulty at his level are revised and new advanced structures are presented. Integrated vocabulary practice concentrates especially on collocations, idioms and word-building. A study skills section in alternative units promotes effective study habits and there are revision exercises after every six units. Students and teachers can plan their courses and review progress by selecting units from the detailed map at the beginning of the book.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

'Panorama is an excellent new course for post-First Certificate students ... It's also a particularly welcome addition to one's EFL library given the shortage of materials for advanced learners who are not doing exams.' 'Aspects of the course book which make it different and highly usable include the relatively large number of units compared to other advanced text books. This allows for an interesting range of topics and means that both teacher and students do not get bogged down with one subject.' BBC English Magazine, 1998

'The variety of themes used for the lessons shows that a great deal of thought has gone into choosing topics of interest not only for their topicality but also for their inherent interest. The attention given to, grammar is laudable, with extracts from the excellent Cambridge Encyclopedia of the English Language, good use of the IPA and welcome sections on slang and idioms.' 'The Teacher's Book is a model of its type. No teacher could fail to benefit from the detailed instructions that have been made out in such a way as to allow the teacher freedom but also to provide welcome support and some very good ideas.' 'All in all, a well constructed and thoughtfully conceived course for students from high information density cultures.' Authentically English, 1998

'I feel that this course has much to recommend as it provides motivating and challenging material for the difficult post-FCE period, and will encourage students to maintain their interest in learning English and progress further with the language.' EL Gazette, 1998

'One of the most outstanding features in Felicity O'Dell's book is, how she has integrated subject matter to language, giving each activity a real purpose, making each task challenging and meaningful. In her book language is not an end on its own but a means to explore content.' IATEFL Newsletter
