A complete 10-lesson B1–B2 course that helps teenage and adult English learners speak with more confidence. Ready to teach, with lesson plans, answer keys and editable slides.

Little by Little is a gentle, reflective companion journal for English learners. Each lesson explores one idea that every learner recognises: the fear of mistakes, hidden nerves, quiet progress, forgotten words, listening, and the courage to keep going. This Teacher’s Pack turns it into ten warm, speaking-rich classes.

What’s included:

• The student journal (PDF, 75 pages), to copy for your own students
• Teacher’s notes (33 pages): aims, timings and step-by-step plans for ten 60-minute lessons
• Answer keys for every gist and detail reading question
• New practice material: gap-fill sentences, role-play cards and model answers for every lesson
• Language notes on common errors (me too / me neither, used to / getting used to, borrow / lend and more)
• Editable PowerPoint slides for every lesson (11 slides each), plus PDF versions
• Tips for teaching online, for fast finishers and for weaker groups
