Description

Sponsored Presentation: Cambridge University Press & Assessment

Helping students speak confidently remains a key challenge in many English language classrooms. This presentation introduces the latest edition of EVOLVE, the Second Edition, a six level general English course built on the principle that speaking matters. Informed by insights from language teaching experts and feedback from over 2,000 real students worldwide, EVOLVE places meaningful speaking practice at the centre of every unit through features such as dedicated Time to Speak lessons, real student video content, and carefully scaffolded lesson stages. The session also outlines key updates in the Second Edition, including enhanced grammar support, improved accessibility, and new digital tools on Cambridge One, showing how EVOLVE supports both teachers and learners in making speaking a realistic and achievable classroom goal.
