"A new edition is not a question of just picking out one activity and inserting another. Every unit is redesigned, redeveloped, reconstituted and things do remain the same, but a lot changes as well."

- Liz Soars, Headway Author

"Headway provides not only material which helps you teach English in an engaging way but it is also packed with ideas on how to present the material in a novel way."

- Sara Salahshoor, Iran

"Headway has always offered me diverse and engaging materials which accommodates all my students' social and cultural backgrounds."

- Carlotta Dell'Arte, Italy

"I've been using Headway my whole life because I started learning English with Headway as a learner and I now work with Headway as a teacher! What I love about Headway is that it is so authentic and real."

- Karina Vardanyan, Germany
