Starting out sb. /access to english/

STARTING OUT is the first book of ACCESS TO ENGLISH, a four-part course with optional audio-visual components which takes students with no previous knowledge of English up to a good intermediate level. Parts 2, 3 and 4 of the course - GETTING ON, TURNING POINT and OPEN ROAD - may also be used independently. STARTING OUT covers 20 chapters in the story of Arthur Newton, an amiable if somewhat incompetent junior librarian whose light-hearted adventures provide the story-line for the course. Among other episodes in this book, Arthur finds himself returning home late at night to the wrong house, stranded on an island after a picnic on the river, and -apparently - winning a fortune on the football pools. Accompanying this book are: • the Teacher's Book • Tapes or Cassettes • Filmstrip or OHP or Wallchart Packs A and B • Workbooks A and B • Testbook • Songs & Music Cassette
