TOWARD A WORLD ENGLISH

in steemit •  7 years ago 

These materials have been used successfully by millions
in more than forty countries. They have been used as a
self-teacher by learners of all ages, in schools and in all
those diverse settings in the world where a command of
English is needed. The materials are the result of exten-
sive research and field testing for over fifty years.
Although many users’ first language will be English, mil-
lions more will come to English as a second or alternative
language. For this group, assistance is needed to move the
learner beyond visual comprehension to a command of
both spoken and written English. The most effective help
will come from a teacher with a command of English
who can act as a model and make corrections on pronun-
ciation. Assistance can come as well from audio materials
directly matched with the text, with space for the learner
to practice speaking.
In updating English Through Pictures, the greatest care
has been taken at all times to maintain the integrity of the
learning system. The updating of this re-issue is to be
found mainly in Book II and III. Dates, prices, popu-
lation figures, other factual information, and selected
illustrations have been updated for current usage. This
updating must, of course, be a continuous exercise by the
learners. The pocketbooks must become their own, and a
base or frame on which future learning can be mounted
safely and effectively.
