Class Materials

There's a link to class materials here which contains stuff from several recent courses.

As well as 2007's classes so far, there are files relating to High Reading and Writing, Intermediate Reading Writing and Grammar, and Pre Intermediate Reading Writing and Grammar.

Listening and Speaking Class - Winter One 2007

Intermediate Level Class

Students: Aliya, Eyad, Hyun Soo, Ssun, Taek Joo

We started the course by doing some work on pronunciation and we looked at sound chunking with a focus on stress and intonation. Word files of the handouts can be found here and here. These materials were adapted from a recording from Natural English Intermediate.

Every day since, we have had conversations and discussions followed by feedback. You can look at the photos we discussed here or find out more about Google Earth here. For film and film star information, I recommend The Internet Movie Database as a good starting point. Try reading some reviews for new vocabulary.

Feedback from week three can be found here.

You can listen as many times as you like. When you want to check your answers, you can look at them here.
