    About this ebook

    Key Skills to Unlock Your English is an ideal supplementary teaching resource for TEFL/TESL/TESOL instructors. Each section can be used as a single, long lesson, or broken down into a series of shorter segments with separate lesson plans revolving around the acquisition of a certain language skill.
