What is Step One?

Step One is a Pre-A1 book that gently prepares learners for the A1 level. It offers simple, motivating, and practical lessons for teens and adults who are starting English completely from scratch.

If you are a teacher, say goodbye to endless photocopies and extra preparation. Step One provides ready-to-use lessons that can also serve as an adaptation for students who need more support.

With Step One, learners will:

  • Benefit from a purple mini-summary box on every page showing key vocabulary and grammar.
  • Build confidence with very simple vocabulary and grammar presented in small practical chunks.
  • Develop communication skills step by step with writing, listening and speaking activities.
  • Learn through clear illustrations that make language memorable and easy to understand.
  • Practice real-life English in the Survival English section.
  • Check their progress with self-assessment tasks at the end of each unit.
