The programme has been designed in line with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. The PEARSON Speakout course materials will be used throughout the training.

Using everyday digital lifestyle content, students are encouraged to engage with a variety of accents in order to improve their English speaking skills.

Speakout encourages students to embrace the spoken side of English and to develop their reading, writing and listening skills. The course improves overall fluency and enables students to express themselves confidently in English. Integrated with workplace skills, the lessons prepare students for their professional lives through training in mediation and 'future skills'.

It familiarises students with a range of varieties and accents through video content that helps them develop the skills they need to express themselves confidently in English-speaking situations. Speakout helps students understand and communicate in everyday English. Through engaging activities and review exercises, it offers a confidence-building learning process.

The Speakout series is available in British or American English editions. Covering the four core skills comprehensively, it is the choice of teachers who focus on building students' confidence in speaking English.

WHY SPEAKOUT?

1. It reinforces learning and encourages independent study.
2. It includes content designed to develop future skills.
3. It features different accents to increase familiarity with everyday English conversation.
