You'll feel like a new person through this brilliant, full-colored series! Lively and clear in its focus, each unit targets a particular conversational function through two authentic dialogues. The dialogues open with full-page color photographs of everyday situations (restaurants, work, shopping, meeting with friends, etc.). They are followed by two pages of innovative, entertaining task-listening activities. The units wrap up with a Person to Person pairwork project from role plays to surveys. Attention to pronunciation and grammar is carried throughout. Review units and tapescripts are in the back. The teacher's guide is interleaved with student book pages and offers a section of photocopiable pages. Listening selections are available on either CDs or cassettes.

Book 1: Twelve units covering introductions, describing people, asking directions, accepting invitations, making suggestions, agreeing/disagreeing, ordering, and specifying wants.
Book 2: Twelve units covering conversational openings, asking for directions, telephone skills, identifying problems, giving advice, interrupting, discussing needs, making reservations, discussing qualities, relating personal experiences, and giving opinions.
