Academic readiness

Q: Skills for Success Second Edition helps students to get ready for academic success. Enhanced skills support provides more reading or listening comprehension in every unit, deepening students’ understanding of the unit topic and better preparing them for the unit assignment. A greater variety of activities encourages students to use critical thinking skills, such as making inferences or synthesizing information from different texts.

Video in every unit adds a new dimension to the course. Documentary-style videos use material from the BBC and CBS, providing authentic, high-interest input related to the unit topic. In addition, skills videos present useful grammar points in a digestible format.

In the Listening and Speaking strand, the new note-taking skills section provides focused practice on this essential skill in every unit. And the writing syllabus in Reading and Writing has been extended and improved to help students progress from writing coherent sentences to structuring a full essay. The new online Writing Tutor supports students to write independently.

Vocabulary from the Oxford 3000™ and Academic Word List is highlighted to help students focus on the most relevant words they need to learn.
