Using English, Firsthand
Marc Helgeson
Pearson Education

What makes English Firsthand such a popular course?  Many things make it just right for Korean learners: Learning strategies introduced in Unit Zero and recyled throughout the book; task-based and personalized listening that make use of what our students already know; motivating and practical pair work that moves beyond information gap to include learners ideas and experiences; group work with shared speaking responsibility; the web site with content links; expansion activities and free key pals; the free audio CD in every book; a Teacher's Manual with lesson plans; photocopiable tests and activities; culture and lesson plans; and more.  Firsthand students really USE English to share their ideas and themselves! The author will share the ideas behind the course.  Teachers will be encouraged to share their experiences as well.  Teachers new to the course as well as experienced Firsthand teachers are welcome.  Join us!
