Trans-Europa-express. Deutsch - Catherine Farrel

This text is part of the "Trans-Europa-Express: Deutsch" series. The title of the course was inspired by the high-speed trans-European train, and in the spirit of its namesake, it aims to transport its students quickly and efficiently from absolute beginner to the highest grades of GCSE, calling at all stations of the National Curriculum!;The text is aimed at those who will cover the GCSE course in just two or possibly three years, and the author's tone is equally suited to those beginning in Year 10, or to sixth form and further education students. The course offers a clear progression through the German language, with plenty of revision and homework exercises to reinforce newly-learned material, as well as photocopiable assessment sheets to help monitor student's progress. There is also a comprehensive reference section which provides full English explanations of grammatical structures and a German-English glossary.;The course consists of two student's books, each of which is accompanied by two C60 cassettes of listening material and a resource book for teachers, including full teacher's notes, answers, tape transcripts, worksheets and suggestions for supplementary work. This second student's book combines imaginative coverage of the final areas of the National Curriculum with built-in revision of the earlier topics, preparing students for the best possible grades at GCSE and bridging the gap to A Level.
