Stepping Out is a new integrated skills
coursebook written for Japanese students. Students
improve their English skills through learning
about and interacting in a rich variety of
Japan-specific cross-cultural situations. Teacher
feedback is built-in, allowing the teacher to
respond to student errors quickly and efficiently.
Pragmatic Focus...
Learners are encouraged to notice errors and use
this awareness to improve their own skills and
ability. Special tear-out gambit pages give extra
practice using role play in a number of
situations.
Cross Cultural Themes...
Learners are introduced to, and practice
interacting with, a number of native speaker
figures who appear throughout the book. Also, many
Japanese cultural themes are explored, such as
games, sports, food, and festivals, giving
learners valuable practice at explaining these to
non-Japanese.
Ample Opportunities for Practice...
The book is filled with numerous examples and
exercises to give learners plenty of practice and
confidence. Vocabulary is introduced gradually and
recycled regularly to optimise learning.
Use this book for:
- Oral Communication classes
- Cultural Studies or Discussion classes
- Adult learners
- Preparing for travel abroad or homestays
- ESS classes
- Private students who want a cross-cultural
focus
