The Basic English Conversation for Beginners

PREFACE
This book is the first edition which is expected to give
many exercises for English learners to explore their ability in
speaking English. Speaking materials are provided with some
expressions and dialogues that guide learners to apply in the real
conversation. This book also contains several sections on each
chapter such as pictures and listening, expressions, dialogues,
exercises and tasks.
The use of pictures is aimed to attract and stimulate the
learners to speak and express their ideas relating to the pictures
given. Showing some expression may help the learners to
structure their own sentences which can be used in their
conversation. Drills, one of the old methods in teaching a foreign
language, are still given to meet the needs of learners. Some
examples of dialogue are shown to invite learners’ creativity in
making their own dialogue. Eventually, exercises and tasks are
made to measure the learners’ comprehensibility in using the
materials taught and to evaluate how well the learners are able to
apply and adopt the material in the real conversation and
dialogue.
As the first edition, this book has many weaknesses and
needs improvement in the next edition. For example, the listening
sections and role plays can be added to complete the materials for
speaking. Therefore, some advice and suggestion are welcome
and waited to make this book better. Finally, this book can guide
and address the learners to achieve their expectation to speaking
English better.
