Introduction 11
12 Introduction
Teaching speaking
Motivation Students may lack the language or confidence
to express themselves in English. It is important, therefore, to
ensure that the experience of speaking English is successful. Your
expectations should be both clear and realistic. You can encourage
students to speak by showing them that it is neither impossible
nor painful.
Preparation Students often need time to think about what they
are going to say. Many of the speaking activities in Scope are staged
and structured in such a way that students should be able to read
out answers or prepare a script if necessary. More able students
may need less support, and you can encourage them to memorise
lines or to look up from a script before speaking.
Modelling It may be helpful for students to have a model when
speaking. In Scope, the conversations on the Speaking pages
are recorded on the Class audio CD. For other speaking exercises,
model questions and answers with a strong student, or ask two
students to ask and answer while the rest of the class listens.
Correction Be careful not to correct students too frequently if
the activity they are doing is designed to improve fluency, such
as a discussion or role play. It is vital that students develop the
confidence to speak without interruption. A useful approach is to
make a note of errors that students make during the activity, and
only address them when they’ve finished.
Conversation There are many opportunities in this course for
‘free speaking’ in the form of short conversations or discussions.
Students can dedicate a section in their notebooks to ‘Everyday
phrases’ or ‘Conversation’, and gradually build up a stock of useful
phrases and idioms which they should memorise.
Introduction 13
14 Introduction
Pronunciation
• Make a note of pronunciation mistakes and correct them as a
whole class after an activity has finished. First, model the correct
pronunciation yourself and then drill the word with the whole
class. Finally, ask individual students to say the word. Ask a
stronger student to go first. Then ensure that the student who
made the mistake also gets a turn.
• Be sensitive when correcting pronunciation. Focus on correcting
serious errors which would impede communication by
repeating the word correctly yourself and asking students to
repeat it.
Speaking
• Be prepared to accept one word answers from weaker students
as long as they are in English.
• If students have to interview each other, get them to interview
you first with the questions.
• Allow students to keep their books open during interviews,
so that they can see the questions when they ask and
answer them.
• When students have to answer questions about themselves, get
them to write their answers first.
• Elicit dialogue phrases and write them on the board and leave
some words on the board as prompts.

Discuss ways to be socially responsible
Warm-up
With books closed, write social responsibility
on the board and elicit the meaning
(= behaving in a way that shows you care
about other people). Ask: What examples
of socially responsible behaviour can you
think of? Elicit some ideas. If students are
struggling, give them some prompts,
e.g. What if an old person gets onto a bus
and there are no free seats? What about
choosing whether to drive into town or get
the bus? What is the socially responsible
thing to do? Why? Elicit a few more ideas,
and then ask: Why do you think some
people are more socially responsible than
others? Elicit a range of ideas.
1 Students read the questionnaire and
choose the correct words. Set a time
limit for the activity. Check answers, and
check that students understand all the
phrasal verbs. Students then answer
the questions in the questionnaire and

I can hear you. You talk so loudly!
Point to the two sentences and ask:
Which one is about something you’re
not allowed to do? Which one is about
something that isn’t necessary? Elicit the
correct modal verbs to complete each
sentence. Ask students to translate the
sentences into their own language.

Talk about my study goals
Warm-up
With books closed, ask: How do you
usually record vocabulary? Do you have a
vocabulary notebook? How do you organise
the vocabulary in your notebook? Elicit a
range of ideas from individual students
and make notes on the board. Ask: Why is
it important to record vocabulary? How do
you learn and remember vocabulary? Elicit a
range of answers from individual students.
24 Starter
Optional activity
Set a date for a progress review, in three
or four weeks. Ask students to set some
study goals for that time. Then keep a
note of which study tips they use, and
how effective they find them. You could
ask them to keep a diary of how much
they study and learn outside class
during that time. When you conduct
the review, students can work in small
groups to discuss which tips they have
found useful, and what ways they have
found to study and learn outside class.
Ask groups in turn to tell the class about
the best ideas. Encourage students to
take on board suggestions from their
classmates and keep trying different
ways to improve their study skills.

There are lots of fascinating things in the

the skeleton is perfectly preserved! Not
only are there wonderful things from
other countries, but there are also things
from Britain. There’s a huge collection of
coins that were found by a member of

you think this is? What problems does this
city have with transport? What do you think
it is like to drive in the city? Would you feel
safe cycling? Why / Why not? How easy do
you think it is to cross the road? Discuss the

Culture
The city in the photo is Cairo, the capital
of Egypt and the largest city in the
Middle East. The population of the city
has grown rapidly in recent years, and
there are now around 19 million people
living in or just outside the city, many of
whom undertake a daily commute into
the city centre. The city is notorious for
its traffic congestion, and road accidents
are fairly common.

Malcolm Gladwell (born 1963) is a
Canadian writer, journalist and public
speaker. His book Outliers, published
in 2008, discusses in detail why he
believes certain individuals go on to
become extremely successful in life.
Gladwell concludes that many factors
contribute to this success, including a
person’s background and environment,
the time and place of their birth, and
the amount of personal drive and
ambition that they have.

Asma
How much time do I spend with my best friend? I’ve never been
asked that before. Let me see … Um, that’s quite difficult to say,
really. Um … quite a lot? And, I like spending time with her because
we’re very similar. For example, my best friend and I both love
music, so that’s why we get on.
Ahmed
That’s a very interesting question. OK, so I think I’ll probably use
English quite a lot in the future, because, uh, I want to travel. For
instance, I’d love to go to the US. I’d love to work for an international
company, so good English skills will be really useful there. And I’d
really like to read books in English, such as Oxford Bookworms. So,
what else? Let me see … Oh yes, I’ll probably need English for work,
too, as I want to be a journalist.
Jamal
Um, let me think about that … Well, I suppose my favourite
hobbies are sports, such as football and tennis. So, uh, you need to
be quite, uh, to be, uh. Oh no. I don’t know the word.
Exercise 7 $ 3•23
Ed Hi, Omar. Hi, Mike. What are you up to? Revising?
Omar Hi Ed. Of course we’re revising. We never do anything else
these days!
Mike It’s true. I seem to spend my whole life trying to prepare for
exams at the moment.
Ed It isn’t much fun, is it? I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling
pretty stressed about the exams. How are you doing, Omar?
Omar I’m actually feeling quite calm. Getting stressed just means
that I can’t concentrate. How about you, Mike? Are you stressed?
Mike No, I’m OK. I’m feeling fairly calm, too. I read some good
advice in a magazine the other day: drink lots of water, eat a
healthy, balanced diet, get plenty of exercise and plenty of sleep. If
your body’s healthy, your mind will be healthy, too.
Ed That sounds sensible! I’ve made myself a revision timetable, but
I’m finding it hard to stick to it, to be honest. Most of my free time is
in the evening, but I’m usually too tired to concentrate by then.
Omar I know what you mean. I find it difficult to revise in the
afternoon or evening, so I’ve been getting up earlier than usual and
revising in the morning. I’m much better at working early in the
morning.
Mike Do you listen to music while you’re revising, Ed? I find it much
easier to concentrate if I put on some relaxing music.
Ed Oh no! Music really puts me off. I need complete silence when
I’m studying.
Omar Me too. And I have to take regular breaks as well.
Ed That’s good advice, Omar. Our brains can’t take in too much
information at once, so you should have a break every half an hour
or so. It gives you time to process everything you’ve read.
Mike How do you two revise your notes? I colour code my notes for
each subject.
Omar Do you mean using different colours to divide notes into
different topics, Mike? That’s not a bad idea. I prefer to sort my
notes into tables and diagrams, though. You should see my
bedroom wall! I’ve put up loads of diagrams to help me remember
things! What do you do, Ed?
Ed I find it easiest to remember my notes if I read them out loud. It
sounds silly, but it really helps me.
Omar Everyone has different ways of revising, don’t they? I think the
important thing is finding what works for you.
Mike Well, I hope all these clever ideas work for us! The exams start
next week!
Ed I’m sure we’ll all be fine. Come on. Let’s get back to work!
