English Ahead has been carefully crafted to expose students to a range of communication techniques and encourages them to reason and think critically. With structured guidance in reading, listening, speaking and writing, the series builds language skills in a measured, holistic way and encourages students to read and write with purpose. The student-centred activities encourage collaboration as well as build students' knowledge of the world around them/

Taking the learning outcomes from both international syllabi and the Cambridge ESL syllabus, the series prepares students for many international exams.
