WELCOME TO ROADMAP

Roadmap is a new, flexible eight-level general English course for adults. Recognising
that every class is different and every learner is unique, Roadmap provides a dual
track approach that allows all learners to develop confidence in speaking while taking
a more tailored approach to skills development. It does this by providing smooth
syllabus progression based on the Global Scale of English, by putting clear and
achievable speaking goals at the heart of every lesson, and by providing in-depth skills
development lessons for teachers to choose from at the back of the Students’ Book.
Multiple opportunities are provided for learners to practise outside the classroom in
print, online and using the mobile app.

Map your own route through the course

It can be challenging for institutions and teachers to deal with the different needs,
interests and abilities of each student, especially if they have a wide mix of
learners in the same class. The unique dual track approach of Roadmap helps you
solve this problem.
● The fast track route concentrates on developing learners’ speaking skills as well
as giving them the grammar, vocabulary and functional language they need to
achieve their goals.
● The extended route gives learners valuable practice in reading, writing and
listening as well as specific training and strategies for developing these skills.

Fast track route: Extended route:

10 core units featuring 10 core units plus
grammar, vocabulary and additional skills-based
pronunciation with each lesson lessons (reading, writing
leading to a final GSE-related and listening) linked to the
speaking activity. content of each lesson.

This unique approach also allows you to adapt material to suit different course
lengths. Whatever the number of hours in your course and whatever the interests of
your learners, the flexible organisation of Roadmap makes it easy for you to choose
the best route for your students’ success.

Build your students’ confidence

Learners need to know what they are aiming for and why. This is key to building
confidence, increasing motivation and helping learners make rapid, tangible
progress.
● Global Scale of English learning objectives provide students with clear goals for
every lesson (the goals have been selected to be useful and relevant to students in
real-life situations).
● Grammar and vocabulary has been specifically selected according to how useful it
is in terms of helping learners reach specific goals.
● Carefully structured tasks with ‘models’ and opportunities to review performance,
Check and reflect activities and regular progress tests allow learners to see how
well they are doing and highlight the areas they need to improve.
