Előszó

Inlroduction to the Teacher Enterprise 1 Beginner is a communicative course, specially designed to motivate and involve students in effective learning at beginner level. The course consists of four modules and provides systematic preparation for ali the skills required for successful communication both in written and spoken form. Each unit, along with its corresponding unit in the Workbook, is designed to be taught in about three to four teaching hours. The Teacher's Book contains: • answers to the exercises in the coursebook, supported by teaching notes and optional oral or written activities. The teaching notes provide guidance on how to deal with the material as it appears in each unit in the Student's Book. The objectives of each unit are set out clearly in the Teacher's Book. • four tests of two versions each with answer sheets (to be used by students to fill in their answers) as well as the answers to each test and a marking scheme. The tests help teachers check vocabulary and structures presented in the course. Each test is to be given after students have done the relevant revision unit in their books. • tapescripts of the recorded material. • answers to the exercises in the Workbook. Authentic Recordings The recordings aim to teach vocabulary and train Ss to understand natural speech in real-life situations. It is not important that Ss understand every single word the speakers say. What is important, is that Ss experience the language spoken naturally. • The Class Cassettes and Class CDs contain all the exercises in the student's book marked IS3 The Student's Cassettes contain the exercises under the headings: Reading, Reading & Listening and Communication, as well as the three stories. The Student's CD contains the exercises under the headings: Reading and Reading & Listening and the three stories. Ss are advised to use the Student's Cassettes or CDs as home study to improve their pronunciation and intonation. Explain to Ss how to use the audio material at home. Ss play the cassette or CD and follow the text/dialogue. Ss pause and repeat, trying to imitate the speakers' pronunciation/intonation. Always check Ss' reading skills in the next lesson. Presenting New Vocabulary Most of the new vocabulary is presented through visual prompts. Those words which are not presented this way can be explained to Ss by miming, giving more examples of the use of these words, drawing on the board or using pictures from magazines/newspapers etc. Ss explain the words in their mother tongue (monolingual classes) or check the meaning of the new words in their dictionaries (multilingual classes). Stages of pairwork There are certain steps to be followed when an exercise is to be done in pairs. These are: • Set Ss in pairs. • Set the task and time limit. • Go round the class and help Ss. • Ask somé pairs to report back to the class.
