This particular set of books is aimed at students at intermediate to an advanced level. There is a separate set of books for the beginner.
Below is a sample text.
This course of ten books is aimed at teachers teaching English to students looking to improve their English and expand their range of knowledge through the use of common everyday language. These e-books are aimed at intermediate to advanced English speakers. This particular set of books will improve the students knowledge and skill. For beginners we have an alternative set of instruction books.
Methodology
The first thing to say about this method is that the basic methodology of delivery is not new in terms of the way the teacher delivers each new concept or word. We are using a tried and tested delivery system which is based on the way you were taught basic speech when you were a child. Most of us learned our basic speech from either our parents or siblings.
All of the idioms, meanings, examples, questions and answers are in table form for ease of reference. In the earlier lessons the questions and answers are quite simple but in the higher levels the questions are more complex and require a more complex response.
The terms used in teaching are (TAGGING) and (TANDEMING). There is a complete and full explanation on how to use the technique in the text.
Sample
Idiom: To work like a dog.
Meaning: To work very, ver hard.
Example: The man worked like a dog all his life.
Question: How hard do you work?
Answer: I work very hard. Like a dog sometimes.
