Communication - Description
Communication is the ability to be able to articulate thoughts and feeling accurately, which is key to a young learner’s development. From being able to ask for directions or instructions, to discussing emotions, communication skills will help young learners develop a rounded and practical English vocabulary.
Featuring audio, visual and kinaesthetic learning styles, these resources focus on everyday situations including morning routines and personal hygiene.
