The Senior English for China series is co-published by the Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press (FLTRP) and the world's largest multinational educational publishing group, Pearson Education. It is edited by Chris Jacques, the lead editor of the current Senior English for China textbook, and Wang Wei, an English teacher at Beijing Foreign Studies University, as the series editors. Additionally, Neville Grant, the lead editor of the current Junior English for China textbook, serves as an advisor. Over 30 experienced secondary school teachers have also participated in the review process.
This series is synchronized with secondary school English teaching, divided into 6 levels from Grade 7 to Grade 12, with 4 types of books per level: Listening and Speaking, Grammar in Context, Reading Skills, and Reading to Writing. Each book targets one of the four language skills (listening, speaking, reading, writing) and grammar, providing students with practice activities.
We decided to publish this series because the current market for supplementary English materials in Chinese secondary schools is disorganized and of inconsistent quality, often failing to meet expectations. Many teachers urgently need high-quality supplementary resources. Therefore, we have made significant investments in manpower, resources, and finances, determined to compile a high-quality supplementary series that meets domestic needs and international standards. This is to alleviate the difficulties of teachers and provide students with a better series to build a solid foundation in English during their secondary school years.
