LEVELS
Speak Your Mind is a complete programme that is effective and relevant from beginner level to advanced level. The programme is linked to the European Common Framework which defines 6 levels of ability to use a foreign language: A1 – C2 (see map below for levels and exams).
The complete programme is planned into 18 levels (Books), plus Speak Your Mind Expert.
Each Book gives dedicated presentation of around 350 new words and builds up the grammar that learners need in order to express themselves with confidence at that level.
Precision
- The design and structure of the programme allows students to be placed at their most appropriate level when they begin their course and enables them to set clear short-term and long-term objectives.
- Students study at their real level and they really feel their progress as they continue through the course.
- Students don’t spend months and months ‘floating’ in ‘intermediate, for example.
“The Speak Your Mind course follows a clear structure; many people intuitively approve of going from A to B to C. Learners like to ‘know what they are learning’ and to ‘know what they know’, for many people this can be an essential aid in maintaining motivation.”
