Reviews / Votes
All of the resources provided for the 90 lessons within Interactive English 7 are valuable in their own right, making the resource a useful standalone addition to teaching. But the real benefit is to be found in the "lesson builder" section of the software. This allows the teacher to edit the lessons, or create new ones, using resources from within the software. You can tailor the resources for the particular group you are eaching and build up the lessons, with support from tried and tested files of your own. The capacity to adapt the lessons is a valuable and very easy process. There are also links from within the programme to the relevant pages of the accompanying course book, which can be viewed on screen. -- Independent We have found the interactive resources brilliant both as a resource but even more as a stimulus to develop classroom practice; they are both challenging and innovative. -- Terry Falconer, Head of English, Aylesbury High School, BuckinghamshireMore details
