Synopsis

Headway is a revision and extension course for adults who want to break through the difficult 'intermediate plateau' of language learning and go on to achieve real fluency in English. Together Headway Intermediate and Headway Upper-Intermediate bring the student up to the level of Cambridge First Certificate. Headway Advanced can be used in preparation for the Cambridge Proficiency examination.
John and Liz Soars each have many years of experience as teachers and teacher trainers. Both have worked at International House, London, and Liz is one of the chief examiners of RSA Dip TEFL.
Each level of Headway provides approximately 120 hours of teaching.
Key features of Headway Advanced include:
Analysis and practice of advanced grammar points within each unit, supported by further, more detailed explanation in the Grammar section at the back of the book.
Reading and discussion material selected from a wide variety of sources, including nineteenth- and twentieth-century literature.
Extensive vocabulary work, with particular focus on the appropriate use of idiomatic expressions and subtle differences in meaning.
In addition to the Student's Book there is a Teacher's Book, a Workbook, and two cassettes to accompany each level of Headway. The first two levels are also accompanied by Headway Pronunciation, which provides a range of supplementary activities to practise bothpronunciation and intonation.
