ABSTRACT

While Chapter 5 focuses on how to improve your understanding of the language, Chapter 6 is about the skills of speaking and writing, which form the other side of the coin when it comes to successful communication. Speaking and writing are often called active or productive skills, which complement the receptive skills of listening and reading. Being able to express what you want to say can be one of the most rewarding achievements when studying a language. Whether you are a complete beginner or an advanced learner, this chapter aims to help you find effective ways of doing so.
