SynopsisGreat texts that motivate students to talk Four-skills syllabus with a clear focus on pronunciation Level-specific features to address learners' different needs Test Generator CD-ROMs Online support, resources, and lesson ideas (Teacher Link), Four-skills American English course with a communicative methodology, engaging texts, and a strong pronunciation syllabus - designed to get students speaking., "Texts must be interesting enough for students to want to read them in their own language.

It ensures you get material that learners will enjoy reading and will want to talk about. Texts such as "Could you live without money?" really help to generate opinion and discussion. They create a desire to communicate. Having created the desire, American English File then helps you to develop learners' communication skills. One way it does this is with a strong focus on pronunciation. Research shows that poor pronunciation is a major contributor to breakdowns in communication (Jennifer Jenkins: The Phonology of English as an International Language). American English File integrates pronunciation into every lesson - the "little and often" approach. But that's not all.
