Help teens build vocabulary & express themselves confidently

To develop speaking skills, teenage learners need to practise speaking a great deal and over an extended period of time. But real improvement requires more than just practice – it requires learners to expand their language abilities: grammar, lexis, pronunciation and so on. Chief amongst these is lexis – individual words, multi-word items, lexical chunks and fixed phrases – since most breakdowns in language production are caused by lack of access to the right word or phrase. In this webinar, Jeff Stranks, co-author of the new secondary course Think!, will look at the relationship between lexical competence and spoken fluency, and suggest materials and activities that can be used to help learners increase their lexical range and thus become better and more confident conversationalists in English. Find out more about the new secondary course, from Cambridge University Press, Think! which goes beyond building strong language skills and develops the whole learner - with an emphasis on critical thinking, values and self-esteem - ensuring academic and lifelong success inside and outside the classroom: http://bit.ly/1UasC6i Subscribe to our YouTube channel for the latest English Language Teaching videos, tips and advice: http://bit.ly/CUPELTYouTube Sign up for future Cambridge webinars: http://bit.ly/CambridgeWebinars
