LEARN TO THINK IN ENGLISH AND SPEAK WITH CONFIDENCE
THROUGH PICTURE STORIES



If you want to speak English with confidence, you have to think in English. To
get there, you need a lot of practice listening to English speakers in everyday
situations. The problem is how to listen and understand naturally without
reading translations at the same time. Exploring English has the solution:
CARTOON STORIES!

These “illustrated conversations” use action pictures to help you understand
spoken English. More than words and phrases, the pictures help you understand
English conversations. This is the easiest way to start thinking in English and
there is a big advantage: you will develop your listening and speaking skills
much faster. With Exploring English, you will learn very practical language that
you can use in real life. In addition, the illustrated conversations are a great
way to learn grammar and vocabulary in context. Just what you need to improve
your English fluency!

HOW IT WORKS

ALL OF THE LESSONS ARE BASED ON ILLUSTRATED CONVERSATIONAL STORIES.  THERE ARE
SIX ACTIVITIES IN EACH LESSON. WORKING TOGETHER, THESE ACTIVITIES CREATE A
POWERFUL LEARNING EXPERIENCE.

LISTENING  Watch the pictures as you listen to the story. The actions, facial
expressions and body language of the speakers will help you guess what they are
saying. You will get the gist of their conversations even if you don’t
understand all of the words. Guessing meaning from context is an essential
listening strategy that you will find very useful in real life when you have
conversations in English.

LISTENING & READING   As you have done previously, use the visual clues from the
pictures to guess the meaning of the sentences as you listen to the audio. 
Translations are provided in your native language, so you can check and make
sure that your guesses are correct.  With repeated practice, your listening
skills will improve dramatically and you will be able to understand everyday
conversational English.

QUIZ Each conversation is broken up into 12 mini-conversations. Read the text of
each mini- conversation while listening to the audio. Then translate the
mini-conversation silently, sentence by sentence, into your native language.
There is a pause for you to translate each sentence before the correct
translation appears on the screen. Repeat this activity and pick out all the
sentences that you were unable to translate. Then review and practice unfamiliar
words and phrases until you have a good understanding of the whole conversation.

SPEAKING   Look at the pictures, listen to the audio, and mimic the words and
phrases you hear.  The pictures make it easier to understand and imitate spoken
language.  Imitating speech – without relying on a written text – is one of the
best ways to develop your listening and speaking skills, along with proper
pronunciation.  In fact, your ability to imitate what you hear is a strong
predictor of your success in learning to speak a new language.  The more you
practice, the better you get.

READING ALOUD   As you read aloud each line of dialogue, try to match the rhythm
and intonation of the characters in the stories, as if you were an actor. This
will help you sound more natural when you speak English. To improve your
fluency, repeat this activity many times until you can produce whole sentences
without hesitating. This is very good training for anyone who wants to speak
English with confidence and sound like a native speaker.

PRONUNCIATION  Listen to the audio and read each line of dialogue out loud. Try
to match as closely as possible the pronunciation of the native speakers. Then
listen to both versions and compare your pronunciation to standard American
pronunciation. Later, when you feel more confident, you can listen to the audio
again and repeat what you hear without reading the text. With regular practice,
you will learn to speak English naturally and with good pronunciation.




EXPLORING ENGLISH REALLY WORKS!

Frequent interaction with illustrated conversational stories will enable you to
learn grammar intuitively, understand and use many common phrases, and master
the most important language functions. These are the essentials you need to
speak English with confidence.

GRAMMAR

Each level contains 16 illustrated stories that show how basic grammatical
structures are used in conversational English.  As you watch and listen to the
stories, you learn how different verb tenses are used to talk about events in
the past, present and future, how adjectives are used to describe people and
places, and so on.  Repeated exposure to basic structures in context enables you
to recognize patterns and understand how the language works.  You develop a
“language sense,” a working knowledge of grammar that carries over into your
daily use of English.

COMMON PHRASES

One of the best ways to improve your fluency is by using chunks of language –
common phrases and expressions – whenever you engage in conversation.  Putting
sentences together word-by-word takes longer because you have to stop and think
about what you are doing.  Native English speakers achieve fluency by using
language chunks that they have used many times before without thinking about
them.  Memorizing rules of grammar and lists of isolated vocabulary words is not
an efficient way to build fluency.  You are much better off listening to,
absorbing and repeating useful phrases that you understand.

Exploring English enables you to learn hundreds of common phrases and
expressions in context through illustrated conversational stories.  Each story
is followed by a series of integrated activities that recycle the phrases and
expressions introduced in the story.  Repeated practice puts these language
chunks – the building blocks of fluency – into your long-term memory.  When this
happens, you can recall ways of saying things and express yourself with much
greater confidence.

LANGUAGE FUNCTIONS

Native English speakers use specific phrases for practical purposes, such
as greeting people, introducing yourself, or starting a conversation.  These are
called language functions.  Learning the phrases that are associated with these
functions will make you a better communicator.  The Exploring English program
features illustrated conversational stories and a range of activities that
provide many opportunities to practice language functions in context.  This kind
of practice will boost your confidence when you speak English in real life
because you already know what to say – just like a native.
