General English (Speakout)

For our general English course, we use a series called "Speakout". We offer three levels from intermediate to advanced. Each book covers a wide range of important topics and all language skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking.

Each book includes a wide variety of conversation topics, insights into English culture, language banks of vocabulary or grammar, and tips and tricks to becoming a more fluent speaker.

Contact one of your teachers at The English Farm for a trial lesson. Use this guide to find the right level based on your English test results.

For your reference

Each book has its own page in the menu below. You will find for each book the following PDFs for your reference:

  • Teacher's Book to assist you in your lessons. You can choose to teach from this or a combination of the student's book below and answer keys.
  • Student Book for your reference and to assist you in teaching classes. Please do not share it with students.
  • 15-page trial Student Book to share with any student interested in this course 

 Note

  • The student's book and teacher's book are big files. It pays to download them.

  • Scripts for the listening exercises are at the back of the student book. If you read these in class, offer your student to read most if not all of it.

  • The book comes with a CD so you can also set the listening exercies for homework. 
  • The layout of this book has articles and picture sets spread across two pages, so reading it in PDF is a little difficult. You will have to scroll between two pages that would be next to each other in the paper version.
