SPEAKING Series (One-Year English Program)

The Student Book for the Speaking Class in One-Year English Program covers four lessons per unit, with the fourth lesson administered as a class project.  The class project serves not only as a review of the three previous lessons, but also as an opportunity for the students to manipulate their creativity to the fullest.  The first three lessons in every unit each starts with a task that is meant to stimulate the students' interest in the topic to be discussed, followed by a number of speaking activities in which the students' speaking skills are thoroughly exploited.  In the wrap up assignment the students are mostly required to role play a guided dialog.

The following appendices are contained in the Student Book:
  • A List of Phonetic Symbols, which learners can refer to
  • An Expression Chart:  a list of functional expressions which the students have to be able to use appropriately.  The expressions are listed per lesson.

STRUCTURE Series (One-Year English Program)

To comply with the demands of the changes that will inevitably come with globalization, LBPP-LIA has added a new program to its curriculum--One Year English Program.  This course has been specially designed for high school graduates and their counterparts who wish to develop their English competency to meet the challenges of either higher studies or first time employment.  Aside from sharpening the students' English language skills, the program's communicative as well as interactive approach incorporated in the fun activities presented in the books, is expected to contribute extensively to the learners' personal development.  Students will also benefit from additional instruction in Office English, Business Correspondence, Note Taking, and Microsoft Office.

In the Structure Series, all the materials explore the various intricacies of English grammar. Each book contains fourteen units, with each unit covering two to four lessons.  Although the focus of this book is on grammar, the four skills (listening, speaking, reading, writing) are incorporated in the activities.
