Section 2 Aims and Objectives

Course Aim

The course aims at helping learners to achieve an overall English language proficiency of Basic User defined as A2 level on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), developing social language functions such as greeting people, asking about work and free time, and making invitations..

Course Objectives

The course is intended to accomplish its goal in one full academic module of 14 weeks through developing students’ language skills to: 

1. Read and understand simple texts and a range of high frequency vocabulary in context. 

2. Talk about aspects of personal and everyday life, using appropriate stress, intonation, and rhythm, and understand simple, spoken texts on familiar topics. 

3. Write simple cohesive paragraphs on familiar topics. 

4. Demonstrate some control of essential grammatical structures with occasional inconsistencies.

New Headway - Key Features

Clear, structured approach to grammar with structures introduced in context, and questions that encourage students to work out the rules for themselves.
A comprehensive 'Grammar section' at the back of the Student's Books provides a useful reference before, during or after the lesson.
A well-defined vocabulary syllabus concentrates on three key areas: learning new words in lexical sets; acquiring good habits for learning vocabulary; and developing vocabulary 'systems' such as sound and spelling relationships.
Additional Information
Integrated skills work with the reading and listening activities in every unit contextualizing and bringing together previously introduced language.
The unit-by-unit writing sections in the Student's Books help to develop students' written English in a range of situations and registers.
Supportive Teacher's Books at each level include an explanation of the methodology, step-by-step lesson guidance, additional activities, photocopiable tests, cultural notes, and detailed answer keys.
