- Language textbooks offer a systematic approach to foreign language studies (listening, speaking, reading, writing, vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation), while primarily focusing on developing communicative skills. Be it Oxford Press, Hueber or SGEL, modern study books do a great job at encouraging students to speak more fluently and confidently. From practical vocabulary to everyday dialogues, from individual to pair and group tasks, language textbooks help building all the required language learning aspects. Besides, print textbooks now often come with digital access to online resources, giving the students self-assessment opportunities.

- Online resources and digital packs are a wonderful latest addition to language textbooks in digital format. They let language learners switch between a print Student's Book and a digital learning platform or offer them extra online self-assessment and skill-building opportunities. Online resources expand each unit of textbooks with additional Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing practice that perfectly complement the course.

- When choosing an English textbook or adapted (graded) literature to read, be sure to select a book corresponding to the level you are aiming to complete and your current linguistic skills (Beginner - Advanced, A1-C1). There is no textbook that's best for all language learners as each has its own structure and learning techniques. Here on exceptionalshop.eu you can buy English textbooks from leading British publishers, such as Oxford University Press, Pearson, Cambridge and Macmillan.

- While there are plenty of study books available for language learners for kids and adults from publishers on both sides of the Atlantic, it's Oxford University Press (OUP), Pearson, Cambridge and Macmillan that are known to have a strong academic background and high-quality study materials. Their textbooks, approved by British Council, are well-researched, thoroughly tested in various classrooms, logically structured and beautifully designed. Some coursebooks like English File, Speakout and Headway can also be used for self-study, especially with latest self-study digital resources.
