Time for a Change? - Make a Transition 
Chris Balderston
Oxford University Press 
 

"Topic-based textbooks are great, but why is the topic always travel?" That's an actual quote from an ESL teacher. Is it time for a change from your current young adult and adult course books? 
Transitions, a new pre-intermediate course from Oxford University Press, offers a smorgasbord of topics. This set of books consists of two levels focussing on meaning and usage. Pair and group work exercises ask students to draw on their own opinions, experience, and knowledge. The course also teaches students conversation management strategies. Both books incorporate Korean culture content along with segments about other cultures to keep students interested. Each book is accompanied by a workbook, teachers' book, and cassettes. 
The presenter will show you how to use these books successfully with adults and young adults. Come learn some tricks for keeping such students motivated and talking. Get a free book and a chance at other great prizes.
