By means of graded units focusing on communication in a variety of circumstances the reader is likely to encounter - travelling, shopping, ordering a meal - the book aims to give the reader proficiency in reading and writing simple texts and joining in everyday conversations. Important expressions and essential grammar are introduced, explained, and then practised in a series of exercises.
