Languages Out There has published and released a course book that will surely benefit a lot of English language teachers and learners from different parts of the planet. Aptly called English Out There, the course book will allow teachers and students to use free social networks and free internet telephony to make their English learning experience more motivating, interactive, inexpensive and practical. Facebook and Skype users will have easy access and opportunities to expand their knowledge of English.

English Out There not only challenges publishing convention about how people actually learn a second language but the methodology it applies also drastically lowers the financial barrier for millions of schools, teachers, and students in different parts of the planet who would like to combine highly valuable native speaker practice into every single lesson for free.

Social media is useful in allowing language exchange among language learners. An application in Facebook allows finding Facebook friends on Skype and allowing language practice with among themselves using the lessons in the EOT course book.

Language teachers and language schools can purchase a copy of English Out There (EOT) for only £14.75 and legally photocopy the teachers’ direction and associated student worksheets. One book can teach a whole class instead of every single student needing their own copy. If a teacher or language school buys a book, they will have the opportunity to get a 50% discount on another eleven levels of similar English materials for just £24.25 via the Languages Out There website.

The EOT Intermediate TD4 course book was already involved to thousands of hours of teaching to fee paying students for more than six years prior to publication and the end result is a book that has been used, taught, and tested more times prior to publication than possibly any other book in the history of ELT publishing.

The English Out There Intermediate TD4 course book consists of twenty-three hour lesson plan with minute by minute instructions for teachers and each plan has between four and ten pages of attractive student worksheets written by teachers and experience English language teaching writers. The materials of the course book were graphically designed by Guardian Professional, and have some entertaining articles by Charlie Brooker. The lessons in the book focus on a specific topic and language focus and were planned around the most useful and up-to-date vocabulary and situations needed to be understood at that course level.
