Innovative writing: The Writing Tutor

Teaching writing is time intensive and not always practical. The Writing Tutor, found on the Over To You Oxford Plus web-book Workbook, allows you to confi dently set writing practice as homework.
It teaches students to systematically plan, write and review their written work, and to approach B2 exam writing tasks with confi dence. The Gradebook saves and organises the work, so marking is easier to manage.

Engaging video dramas

A situational video or drama begins each unit, allowing you to connect with your students. Real English and natural situations that refl ect the daily lives of teenagers make language learning a more personal and meaningful experience.
