Even with all of the great learning materials already available on our platform, we're always working to bring more and better tools to our community of learners.
This time, we're happy to announce an update to our popular category of Conversation materials. Starting on July 10, the intermediate Levels of 4, 5 and 6 will get a big enhancement!

In addition, we've added a new section for Level 6, which also has 50 unique lessons. That brings the total to 150 new materials for students to try!
About Conversation lessons
In Conversation lessons, students start by learning vocabulary and phrases related to a specific topic. Next, they read an example dialogue that shows how what they've learned is used in a natural way by native speakers. The final part of the lesson is practicing themselves in a conversation with their tutor.
Conversation lessons cover a variety of useful topics. For example, students can learn to discuss things like the weather, their hometown or traveling to and from work. There are also more advanced lessons on topics such as career paths, climate change and health.
Structure and features
To make the studying process easier, each set of lessons has been separated into groups of five, with the fifth being a review. However, the lessons are designed so that they can be studied in any order, meaning students can choose the topics that are most interesting to them and move at their own pace.
In addition, through the careful use of AI technology, we've been able to group lessons and dialogue examples into consistent difficulty levels. So once a student finds a lesson they are comfortable with, they can confidently choose others in that range and know that they will be a good match.
Wrap-up
If your students are unsure what to study or often use other materials, such as Daily News or free conversations, why not suggest something new?
Our Conversation materials can give learners the tools to discuss many common and important topics with skill and confidence. We hope they will not only be a popular choice for them, but pleasant for tutors to teach as well.
