English Compass – schnell und sicher ans Ziel!
Für Viele ist Sprachenlernen eine Reise ins Unbekannte: Sie wollen sicher und erfolgreich ans Ziel, wissen aber nicht, welchen Kurs sie einschlagen sollen. Deshalb vertrauen sie auf eine Gruppenreise mit kompetenter Reisebegleitung. Denn welcher Weg sicher ans Ziel führt und wo es zu verweilen lohnt, weiß der erfahrene Reisebegleiter – und das nicht zuletzt dank seiner verlässlichen Ausrüstung.
Bringen Sie Ihre Ausrüstung auf den neuesten Stand: English Compass, das zeitgemäße Lehrwerk, mit dem Sie Ihre Rolle als Reise- bzw. Lernbegleiter meistern und Ihre Teilnehmer auf Erfolgskurs bringen.
Mit English Compass führen Sie Ihre Lernenden in drei Etappen ans Ziel: Nach Band 1 ist die Niveaustufe A1 des Gemeinsamen europäischen Referenzrahmens erreicht, Band 2 bzw. 3 entsprechen den Stufen A2 bzw. B1.
Damit die Reise zum Erfolg für alle wird, wurde das Konzept sorgfältig auf Lerner und Lehrer abgestimmt.
English Compass A1 bietet:
English Compass: Bringen Sie Ihren Kurs auf Kurs.
Hello, I am Victoria Adams. An interest in people led me to initially study Psychology, which has come in useful over the years of teaching English, but it was my desire to see the world which brought me to EFL. After a brief stint in a small town in Spain and then Berlin I discovered Munich, where I stayed for 12 years.
I initially began teaching general and business English then moved on to teacher training and just before my departure back to the UK had the great pleasure of meeting the editorial team and being able to start working with them, initially on a Compass project and then with the Network Now Series.
I currently live and work in Yorkshire, dividing my time between teacher training on CELTA and DELTA courses, writing and giving presentations for Ernst Klett Sprachen.
Hello, I am Vanessa Clark. After a degree in modern languages and my postgraduate studies in education in the UK, I ran away to Munich ‘for one year’ and stayed for eight years as an English teacher and later as a Director of Studies. My classroom experience with adult learners in Germany and my teacher training role there is what I’ve found most useful in writing Refresh Now, Network Now and English Compass, as good coursebooks must be designed with both learners and teachers in mind. I now teach EFL back home in the UK and keep my connection with Germany through my work for Ernst Klett Sprachen.
Hello! I am Sharon Heduvan. I moved to Munich in 1996, after studying modern languages and politics. I did the CELTA in 1998, and then taught at the British Council in Munich. The DELTA followed in 2000, after which I co-set up the BTC, after the British Council closed. A lot of my teaching was done in various ministries of the Bavarian government, where I taught all levels.
Hello. I am Lynda Hübner - but don’t be taken in by the umlaut - I married it! I am English, though I’ve lived in Munich for … goodness me! - nearly forty years! And I have spent a lot of that time teaching English and writing EFL books for the Network Now and Refresh Now series. As a result, I have very little spare time - but I have managed to have a couple of kids and a couple of cats.
Hello! I am Viv Midlane. I’ve been an English Language Teacher since 1982, and taught in Greece, Belgium, Italy and the UK. I’ve also worked in a ‘wide variety’ of other fields including working to develop technology to help disabled people in their day to day lives. This included teaching DJing skills to profoundly deaf teenagers. I returned to University in my 40s to take a Masters degree in English Language Teaching and Educational Technology, and am ‘thinking about’ taking a PhD one day. Now I work as a writer, teacher and examiner. In my spare time I go sailing and hill walking and play harmonica and guitar in blues and rock bands around Manchester.
Hello! I am Olivia Rainsford. I am a teacher, teacher trainer and writer based in Bavaria, but originally from Ireland. I arrived in Germany fifteen years ago, intending to stay for a year. I am still here. I never wanted to become a teacher, but somehow I ended up doing a Masters of Education, I teach full-time and now I am even involved in training other teachers. I live in a ramshackle house in a university town and spend my days doing all manner of crafty things.
Hello – I’m Gaynor Ramsey. I grew up and studied in England, just outside London, and then moved to Switzerland in 1972 (for a year!) and have been living in Zurich ever since. I’ve been a teacher, teacher trainer and writer of teaching materials, for publishers in England, Germany and Switzerland, for well over 30 years and still love the challenge of “making it work” – for learners and for teachers. A major project was the English Network series that I worked on as an author for many years.
My name is James Schofield. I have worked in different countries around the world and for different organisations including the British Council. I now teach at Siemens in Munich and if I am not there and I am not writing for Ernst Klett Sprachen, then I am busy with my seven children, two dogs, one cat and fourteen mice. In fact, the dogs are saying I have to take them for a walk right NOW, so if you’ll excuse me …
