English for work, study and IELTS.
Next Step: English is Book 1 of a new series for learners at level A2+ to B1+ who need English at work and in their studies — and who want a solid start towards IELTS. Its units take you from first impressions and job descriptions to emails, calls and video meetings, numbers and trends, advertising and presentations, and every unit ends with an IELTS Corner that introduces the exam task by task.
Step by step
Short, focused units that build on each other, so every lesson gives you something you can use straight away.
Real listening
Recorded conversations, calls, talks and podcasts with speakers from Britain and around the world, free to stream or download, with a read-along transcript for each one.
Ready for IELTS
The IELTS Corner sections prepare you for the exam, so you can move straight on to the IELTS Mastery series when you finish.
Learn every word in the book.
Each unit’s word list comes with flashcards, a spelling check, a translation quiz, a match game and memory, so the vocabulary sticks before the next lesson.
