English Practice for Speakers of Russian

Elementary Pre-intermediate. , , , . . .

The book consists of Elementary and Pre-intermediate courses. The author maintains learners' motivation by funny stories about real life situations such as meeting people, accommodation and job searches, studying, working etc. Methods used utilize natural human ability to remember words used in texts repeatedly and systematically. Since incoherent excerpts from classical literature used in most English textbooks are inappropriate for this purpose, the author had to compose each sentence using only words and rules explained in previous chapters. The second and the following chapters of the Elementary course have only about thirty new words each. To make learning process more interesting author uses diverse ways of explaining new material such as games, songs, exercises, FAQs, jokes and sayings. Moreover, the author offers free on-line group consultancy and individual lessons. He is inviting learners to ask questions and take part in games, dialogs and in other activities.
