What do Pre-intermediate students need?
Pre-intermediate students are at a crucial stage in their
learning The novelty of being a beginner may have worn off,
but the goal of communicating with ease and fluency can
still feel a long way off Students at this level more than ever
need material that maintams their enthusiasm and builds
their confidence They need to know how much they are
learning and what they can now achieve
At the same time they need the encouragement to push
themselves to use the new language that they are learning
Grammar, Vocabulary, and Pronunciation
At any level, the tools students need to speak English with
confidence are Grammar, Vocabulary, and Pronunciation
(G, V, P) In New English File Pre-intermediate all three
elements are given equal importance
Each lesson has clearly stated grammar, vocabulary, and
pronunciation aims This keeps lessons focused and gives
students concrete learning objectives and a sense of progress
Grammar
Pre-intermediate students need
e thorough revision of Elementary structures
@ clear and memorable presentations of new structures
@ regular and motivating practice
e student-friendly reference material
We have tried to provide stimulating recycling of language
Pre-intermediate students should already know, and
contexts for new language that will engage them, using real-
life stories and situations, humour, and suspense The
Grammar Banks give students a single, easy-to-access
grammar reference section, with clear rules, example
sentences, and common errors There are then two practice
exercises for each grammar point
© Student’s Book p.126/7
The photocopiable Grammar activities in the Teacher’s Book
can be used for practice in class or for self-study
© Teacher’s Book p 139
Vocabulary
Pre-intermediate students need
@ to revise and reactivate previously learnt vocabulary
to increase their knowledge of high-frequency words
and phrases
tasks which encourage them to use new vocabulary
© accessible reference material
Every lesson in New English File Pre-intermediate focuses on
high-frequency vocabulary and coinmon lexical areas, but
keeps the load realistic Many lessons are linked to the
Vocabulary Banks which help present and practise the
vocabulary in class and provide a clear reference bank so
students can revise and test themselves in their own time
The stress in multi-syllable words is clearly marked and
where we think the pronunciation of a word may be
problematic, we have provided the phonemic script
© Student’s Book p.144
Students can practise using all the vocabulary from the Vocabulary Banks in context with the MultiROM and the New English File student’s website
Pronunciation
Pre-intermediate students need
a solid foundation in the sounds of English
@ systematic pronunciation development
© to build on their awareness of rules and patterns
With new language come fresh pronunciation challenges for Pre-intermediate learners, particularly sound-spelling relationships, silent letters, and weak forms
Students who studied with New English File Elementary will already be familiar with New English File’s unique system of sound pictures, which give clear example words to help students to identify and produce the sounds New English File Pre-intermediate continues with a pronunciation focus
in every lesson, which integrates improving students’
pronunciation into grammar and vocabulary practice
© Student’s Book p.17
Tf you or your students have not used the New English File series before, the Teacher’s Book provides clear guidance on how to introduce them to the sound pictures system
© Teacher’s Book p.14
The pronunciation focus is often linked to the Sound Bank,
a reference section which students can use to check the symbols and to see common sound-spelling patterns
© Student’s Book p.156
Throughout the book there is also a regular focus on word
and sentence stress where students are encouraged to copy the rhythm of English This will help students to pronounce
new language with greater confidence
Speaking
Pre-intermediate students need
© topics that will arouse their interest
tasks that push them to incorporate new language
© a sense of progress in their ability to speak
The ultimate aim of most students is to be able to communicate in English Every lesson in New English File Pre-intermediate has a speaking activity which activates grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation The tasks are designed to help students to feel a sense of progress and to show that the number of situations in which they can communicate effectively is growing
© Student’s Book p.41
The Communication section of the Student’s Book provides
‘information gap’ activities to give students a reason to communicate
© Student’s Book p 108
Photocopiable Communicative activities can be found in the Teacher’s Book These include pairwork activities, mingles, and games
© Teacher’s Book p.183
Trang 8Listening
Pre-intermediate students need
confidence-building, achievable tasks
to practise getting the gist and listening for detail
to make sense of connected speech
Even high-level students often say that they find understanding
spoken English one of the hardest skills to master At pre-
intermediate level students need confidence-building
listening tasks which are progressively more challenging in
terms of speed, length, and language difficulty, but are
always achievable They also need a variety of listening tasks
which practise listening for gist and for specific details We
have chosen material we hope students will want to listen to
© Student’s Book p.23
New English File Pre-intermediate also contains nine songs
which we hope students will find enjoyable and motivating
For copyright reasons, these are cover versions
Reading
Pre-intermediate students need
© engaging topics and stimulating texts
challenging tasks which help them read better
Many students need to read in English for their work or
studies, or will want to read for pleasure about their hobbies
and interests Reading is also important in helping to build
vocabulary and to consolidate grammar Students need
motivating but accessible material and tasks which help
them read better, e.g guessing the meaning of words and
phrases from context, In New English File Pre-intermediate
texts have been adapted from a variety of real sources (the
press, magazines, news websites) and have been chosen for
their intrinsic interest
© Student's Book p 18
The Revise & Check sections also include a more challenging
text which helps students to measure their progress
© Student's Book p.52
Writing
Pre-intermediate students need
clear models
© an awareness of register, structure, and fixed phrases
a focus on micro writing skills
Worldwide, people are writing in English more than ever,
largely because of the importance of e-mail and the Internet
New English File Pre-intermediate has one Writing lesson per
File, where students study a model before doing a guided
writing task themselves These writing tasks focus on both
electronic and ‘traditional’ text types, and review grammar and
lexis from the File There is also always a focus on a writing
‘micro skill, for example, punctuation, spelling, or connectors
© Student's Book p.61
Practical English
Pre-intermediate students need
@ to understand high-frequency phrases that they will hear
@ to know what to say in typical situations
to know how to overcome typical travel problems
Students will need to use English if they travel to an English-
speaking country or if they are using English as a lingua
franca, The eight Practical English lessons re-visit and revise
common situations (for example checking into a hotel) and
introduce and practise the language for new challenges (for
example, making a phone call) To help make these everyday situations come alive, there is a story line involving two main characters, Mark (American) and Allie (British), which continues from New English File Elementary, Don’t worry if you or your students haven't used the Elementary level — there is a summary of the story so far in the first episode
© Student’s Book p.12
The You hear / You say feature makes a clear distinction between what students will hear and need to understaud, for example With ice and lemon?, and what they need to say, for example Just ice The lessons also highlight other key ‘Social
English’ phrases such as Bless you! and Cheers!
The Practical English lessons are also on the New English File Pre-intermediate Video which teachers can use with the
Student's Book exercises instead of the class audio The video will provide a change of focus and give the lessons a clear visual context The video will make the lessons more enjoyable and help students to roleplay the situations Extracts from the video {the second dialogue from each lesson) are also on the MuitiROM
Revision Pre-intermediate students need
© regular review
© motivating reference and practice material
© a sense of progress
Pre-intermediate students need to feel that they are moving
on, that they are increasing their knowledge, improving their skills, and expanding the number of contexts in which they can use English effectively At the end of each File there is a Revise & Check section What do you remember? revises the grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation of each File What can you do? provides a series of skills-based challenges and helps students measure their progress in terms of
competence These pages are designed to be used flexibly according to the needs of your students
© Student's Book p.14
The photocopiable Communicative and Grammar activities also provide many opportunities for recycling
© Teacher’s Book pp 139 and 183
