Speakout Advanced
Speakout Advanced is not specifically an exam preparation course but contains activities and exercises suitable for CAE or
IELTS. At this level learners learn to link and justify their ideas in persuasive ways. They learn to understand and express
degrees of certainty and distinguish between fact and opinion. In interaction, they are able to maintain attention and develop a
logical argument, in conversation, formal debates and written documents. Speakout Advanced provides graded training for
these skills.
