About the course
Learn natural spoken English, underpinned by a complete online learning system
English Firsthand provides learners with a range of carefully structured activities aimed at developing well-rounded and natural oral communication skills.
Video content includes presentation model videos which prepare learners for doing their own ‘mini-presentation’ on the unit’s topic, as well as conversation model videos to practice situational dialogues, bringing the written conversations to life.
MyMobileWorld is an online learning system designed by teachers for teachers. Teachers can easily monitor learner participation and progress, and conduct flipped classrooms.
Learners end each unit with Real Stories, a five-skills integrated task that presents the language in context, with each step reinforcing the previous skill used, ensuring learners gain confidence as they learn.
