What is it? Collins’ innovative English for Life series adds the extra bit of authenticity to your studies that traditional coursebooks often lack. The series includes helpful up-to-date and relevant topics needed to get by in English and uses authentic material from the Collins Corpus, the world’s largest database of the English language.

How can the series be used? The series can be used for independent study (self-study) and extra assignments, it’s a great supplement to existing coursebooks, and the books can also be used as stand-alone coursebooks for short courses. All books have accompanying teacher resources available online.

English for Life: Speaking《生活英语口语3本套装》可以用作自学课程，也可作为普通英语课的补充材料。每本书按主题各分为20个单元，每单元包括实用技巧（Useful tips）、生活场景会话数篇（Conversations）、理解（Understanding）、准确表达（Sayingit accurately）、清楚表达（Sayingitclearly）、恰当表达（Sayingit appropriately）和口语练习（Get speaking）等板块，另含语言注释（Language note）和文化注释（Cultural note），全方位帮助学习者在以下方面提高英语口语及沟通技巧。Rhona Snelling is a freelance ELT writer and editor, with extensive experience teaching exam courses in private language schools and universities in the UK and overseas.
