Focus on exam preparation
Focus offers targeted development of exam skills.Starting from the very first level of the course students are offered regular exposure to EXAM-TYPE TASKS and exam reference. Focus is the first upper secondary course to offer a separate material devoted particularly to exam preparation.
Focus on vocabulary
The course offers the Word Store – a vocabulary practice booklet with a wide variety of exercises and a unique method of involving learners actively in recording new words and phrases.
Focus on 21st century skills
21st Century Learning is embedded throughout Focus, because teaching upper secondary students to use English confidently in the 21st Century is no longer a special feature for an ELT course – it is an essential one.
