Many learners study long and hard, but still feel unprepared for everyday life in an English-speaking world. Sound familiar? Then Cambridge English Skills could be just what your students need, as the series is suitable for self-study or for use in the classroom.

This four-level skills series for adults and young adult can help learners develop the skills they need to use English confidently wherever they are – at home, at work, travelling, studying or just in social situations with English-speaking friends.

Activities based around the themes of ‘Social and Travel’ and ‘Work and Study’ cover a whole range of everyday situations and really help students to understand the English they meet in the world around them.

Students can…

• feel more confident interacting in English: a range of tasks based on real-life situations will give them the confidence to tackle anything!

• develop coping strategies for dealing with difficult scenarios: learning tips throughout the books will help them develop the skills that they need to understand and be understood.

• take their learning off the page and into their daily life, through extra ‘real world’ practice tasks

• monitor their progress: a unit-by-unit checklist, based on the ALTE Can-do statements, lets them see what they have achieved – and feel proud of it!

Teachers can…

• help learners to put what they have learned into context, using the cultural notes

• take advantage of bonus tasks suitable for pair and group work, giving your students even more opportunities to get it right!
