Introduction to changes being made

The idea of this revamp is to combine all of the present "English" books into one book with sections for each area. At present it is impossible for those wishing to learn some basic English to actually find the correct book. I also think that each book should have a more specific target audience.

Book 1) is intended for native speakers as a grammar reference. It would also be suitable for advanced learners of English (levels C1 and C2).

Book 2) is intended for elementary learners of English (non-natives). It should be targeted towards levels A1 and A2.

Book 3) is intended for intermediate students at levels B1 and B2.

Book 4) is intended for B2 level students preparing for the University of Cambridge FCE examination.

Book 5) is intended for teachers who teach English as a foreign language. This book will mainly focus on teaching practice and theory and not on specific grammar.

Book 6) is intended for business students (level B1 and B2 maybe) who need English for specific purposes like meetings and telephoning.

Explanation of Levels

These levels correspond to the European Framework for Languages.

A1 students are those who are able to say simple sentences about themselves and complete some forms requiring information.

A2 students have usually studied English for at least a year and have a passing knowledge of tenses and can produce short sentences about themselves.

B1 students are able to have conversations about simple topics but make still make frequent mistakes.

B2 students have usually studied English for at least 3-4 years. They are starting to master English grammar and their vocabulary is substantial.

C1 students are advanced and have usually studied English for more than 5 years. Often their level of English is better than native speakers and they can converse about any topic.

C2 students may still make the occasional mistake but their English is very advanced and they can listen or read any kind of material and produce writing about any topic. Generally a C2 student has a knowledge of the English language greater than that of most native speakers.

Other Possibilities
It would be nice to incorporate some audio and possibly video files in the English books. This is one area where we are lacking when compared to other language text books on Wikibooks. Some tests will be needed for each book and we should work to ensure that material isn't duplicated - vocabulary pages can be repeated, for instance, for different areas.

Any other ideas :

Please list any other ideas or suggestions that you have for the redevelopment of the Wikibook's English module.

Top tips to Learn English

How to Learn English ?!

Learning English is not easy. Many websites will try to sell you the idea that you can pay $19.99 per month and your English will be perfect. English isn't that easy language and it takes a lot of time to learn it. It takes the average English student five years to speak and write it with any kind of fluency. How long have you been studying English? If you really want to learn English, here are some useful suggestions :

1. Listen : Listening to any language is the most important factor to learn how to do first.

2. Match sounds to words : When you listen to the language, look at the letters and words that match the sounds. This will extremely improve your reading ability.

3. Write : Everytime you learn something new, write it down in a notebook. This will help you to remember what you have learned.

4. Read - Try to read English one hour every day. Yes, this is difficult, but English is a very big language, and the only way to learn essential vocabulary is to read it.

5. Speak - Whenever you have the opportunity, speak English. This will be hard to do if you don't live in an English-speaking country; however, the Internet provides new opportunities to practice speaking through chat rooms (which is mostly just text for now) and through audio-video chat technology, such as is available through an Apple computer.

6. Use the Internet - Find one or two or three different free websites that you can go to daily. Don't pay for instruction over the Internet. Some websites require monthly or yearly fees and they aren't worth it. This website will always be free.Costs are covered by Ads.

7. Learn from a teacher - If it's possible you should try to learn from as many different teachers as possible, but at the very least find one teacher and learn what you can from that person.

Pinky Dinky Doo: Pinky's Podcasts

Publisher: Sesame Workshop

Pinky Dinky Doo loves to tell stories. Now Pinky's fantastic stories are portable. Your child can hear Pinky's stories anytime or anywhere.

Pinky's podcasts share the same educational goals as the television show and the online games — to support early literacy skills through story telling. Pinky's podcasts encourage listening, reading comprehension, story sequencing and developing new vocabulary.

The beauty of podcasting is twofold — not only can you listen to a show anytime, but also you never need to worry about missing an episode. The subscription feature makes it radio-on-demand. Once you subscribe to Pinky's RSS feed, there is no need to check the web site for updates. Podcast software does that work for you — it automatically checks for new episodes and then downloads those files to your computer. (RSS, which stands for "really simple syndication", is essentially a way to distribute content automatically.)


If you already have Podcast software, just copy and paste the appropriate URL into your RSS reader and it will automatically download each new episode!
