Each level covers the following learning areas: listening, reading, speaking and grammar. Within each learning area there are a range of online tools designed to provide students with the pedagogical support needed to effectively and independently work in that learning area; for example, the audio version of written texts, the translation option, the dictionary, and the visual aids.

Listening

The listening section is designed to enhance students¡¯ comprehension of aural input through exposure to a variety of listening segments (video clips, television shows, radio programs, voicemail messages, etc.).

Reading

The reading section is designed to expose students to different text types (stories, ads, letters, postcards and articles) with emphasis on reading strategies: guessing words from context identifying main idea, keywords, etc.

Speaking

The Speaking section consists of real life dialogues set in everyday situations, with an emphasis on functional language for daily use.

Grammar

The Grammar section introduces the grammatical structures in context and provides practice in them. Animated, humorous examples illustrate the use of the grammatical structures and facilitate their acquisition. Explanations and examples are also provided.
