For the Teacher

Do you want to teach English and have some fun? If the answer is yes, you picked the right
book!

This series is a complete compact English course of 15 books for students who want to learn
English as a second language.

The Canadian Language School was founded in 2001 to teach English as a second language.
In the beginning, our problem was choosing teaching materials to use for our courses. There
were many books on the market, some of them were good, but most of them were reference
books or incomplete courses. There were also separate books for grammar, vocabulary and
reading. What we really wanted was a complete compact English course. We couldn’t find a
complete course anywhere, so we created our own. Our team of Canadian and American
teachers have been working on developing our course for 18 years. We have created a
complete English course for students who want to learn English as a second language. We
have created books that can be followed page by page without worry. We have included basic
grammar, vocabulary and reading in our series, so it is easier for students to learn and for
teachers to teach.

There are 15 books in the series, and there are four lessons in each book. Each lesson is
divided into eight parts:

 Vocabulary Preview
 Grammar
 Reading
 Conversation
 Missing Word Exercises
 Writing Practice
 Vocabulary Building
 Review Tests

Vocabulary Preview
The students learn new words which are used in the lesson. The teacher helps them get familiar
with the words and gives them some examples of how to use these words. If necessary, the
students use their dictionaries.

2
Grammar
The students learn new grammar. The teacher explains new grammar rules and guides the
students through the exercises.

Reading
There are stories to acquire reading skills. New grammar is used in the stories. The teacher
helps with pronunciation and with understanding of new words and guides the students through
comprehension exercises.

Conversation
The teacher asks the students questions about the story they’ve just read and checks for
understanding. Students then talk about a topic related to the story.

Missing Word Exercises

There are exercises or a story, and students fill in the missing words. The students learn how to
use the grammar they’ve learned in the lesson.

Writing Practice
The students write a short paragraph using the grammar they’ve learned. The teacher corrects
their writing.

Vocabulary Building
The students learn new basic vocabulary and do exercises incorporating the new vocabulary.

Review Tests
At the end of each lesson there is a review test incorporating the grammar from the lesson. The
students take the test, and the teacher corrects it.

We have been using these books in our school for many years, and the students and the
teachers enjoy working with them. Learning English is fun with our books! Have fun and learn
English!
