The first two modules are quite low level and the second two are a little higher. The lessons include questions so the students have to listen for the answer, and each also includes transcript so students can listen and read at the same time. Transcripts are available to download here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QaJkHDwYNZZTpPfkqd7WwVr_auEP2SuU/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=115620839191766234029&rtpof=true&sd=true
The story throughout the four modules is one of Terry who leaves China to study for his masters degree in the UK. He meets people, new friends, shopkeepers, police, ticket sellers, he goes on holiday to France, his family visit from China and he has lots of interactions with people.
Each conversation is short and only one or two target vocabulary in each set so the learner will understand most of what’s said but will find a few new pieces of language there.
It was important for us, creating this course that we use modern day English throughout. This means idioms and language people actually use in day to day settings, not textbook English which is outdated.
