Features: "Direct English" is a set of listening and speaking intensive teaching materials specially designed for English learners, and is another classic work by Louis Alexander, the author of "New Concept English." Unlike "New Concept English," "Direct English" adopts the form of a series of short dramas, integrating language knowledge into the storyline. Learners achieve the goal of strengthening their English listening and speaking skills by imitating authentic American English. "Direct English" is centered around stories. Over the previous many years, Louis had been writing reference books, and he longed to create stories and dialogues again. At this time, Louis had conducted in-depth research on language and was very familiar with various grammatical rules and structures. The outline of "Direct English" is the result of Louis's 30 years of relentless research. "Direct English" uses different language media, reflecting Louis's careful consideration of the role of language media in the language learning process.
