📗 Libro en inglés EFFECTIVE PRESENTATIONS: TEACHER S BOOK

A video-based series aimed at improving communicative skills in specific areas. Effective Presentations teaches the skills needed to make clear, well-organized presentations. Each of the nine free-standing units focuses on a specific area such as structuring the presentation, making a good introduction, and handling questions effectively. How can it be used? As the basis of a short, intensive specialist course. As a component of a longer, more general Business English training programme. For classroom teaching, but also for self-study. Who is it for? Work-experienced learners from a variety of professional fields. Pre-work experience students. Key features Each course looks at a common business function - presentations, meetings, telephoning, socializing and negotiating - and takes learners through a stage-by-stage analysis of the skills and language they need to perform these functions effectively in English. The 30-minute video is the central component of each course. The video illustrates both bad and good versions of the core activity for analysis and discussion. It also acts as the focus for further transfer activities and language work, which are contained in the Student's Book. Each unit is divided into three sections. The first section, Communication Skills identifies and practises the key communication skills of the course (e.g. telephoning). The Language Knowledge section focuses on useful language for performing these skills. The final Practice section gives students the opportunity to put both communication skills and language knowledge into practice in realistic tasks. Students are encouraged to draw on their own experience and use their own ideas whenever possible.
