This workbook is a supplement to the Slow American English podcast episodes 13 - 24 (formerly 1601-1612). The podcast is written, recorded and produced by Karren Doll Tolliver, a CELTA-certified ESL instructor. In the course of her work, Karren recognized a need for students to practice listening skills without the pressure of real-life conversation with native speakers. Thus, Slow American English was born. Karren reads each podcast slowly so that learners of American English can practice listening skills. She also reads the same transcript at a more natural speed for more advanced students. Exercises in this workbook reinforce listening, speaking and writing skills. Each chapter - corresponds to a podcast episode and natural-speed recording - is designed for both self-study and teacher-led instruction - includes a transcript of each podcast, also suitable for reading practice - contains three exercises: - vocabulary-definition matching - multiple choice for comprehension - discussion questions to spur freeform writing or speaking - is arranged in worksheet form, with spaces provided for answers; no need for a separate answer sheet Answer keys are included.
