Learn English Vocabulary Through Dialogues (Beginner-Intermediate) - Jackie Bolen
Introduction
Welcome to this book designed to help you expand your knowledge of English. My goal is to help you speak and write more fluently. You can find the easiest dialogues at the beginning of the book, and the more difficult ones at the back. There are 99 dialogues in total.
Let's face it, English can be difficult to master, even for the best students. In this book, you'll find English dialogues that are ideal for beginners to intermediate-level students.
The best way to learn new vocabulary is in context. To get the most bang for your buck, be sure to do the following:
− Review frequently.
− Try to use some of the phrases and expressions in real life.
− Don't be nervous about making mistakes. That's how you'll get better at English!
− Consider studying with a friend so you can help each other stay motivated.
− Use a notebook and write down new words, idioms, expressions, etc. that you run across. Review frequently so that they stay fresh in your mind.
− Be sure to answer the questions at the end of each dialogue. I recommend trying to do this from memory. No peeking :)
− I recommend doing one dialogue a day. This will be more beneficial than finishing the entire book in a week or two. There are 99 dialogues, so this will take you around 3 months. Be consistent.
Good luck and I wish you well on your journey to becoming more proficient with English.
About the Author: Jackie Bolen
I taught English in South Korea for 10 years to every level and type of student. I've taught every age from kindergarten kids to adults. Most of my time has centered around teaching at two universities in Cheonan and Busan. These days, I'm teaching teenagers and adults in Vancouver, Canada. In my spare time, you can usually find me outside surfing, biking, hiking, or snowshoeing.
In case you were wondering what my academic qualifications are, I hold a Master of Arts in Psychology. During my time in Korea I successfully completed both the Cambridge CELTA and DELTA certification programs. With the combination of almost 15 years teaching ESL/EFL learners of all ages and levels, and the more formal teaching qualifications I've obtained, I have a solid foundation on which to offer advice to English learners.
I hope that you find this book useful. I would love it if you sent me an email with any questions or feedback that you might have.
