"Schritte International" is a new edition of 'Schritte', adapted for adolescent and adult learners worldwide.

Each chapter of the coursebook begins with a photo-story which introduces the topic for the chapter, the material to be learned, and the linguistic structures which will be practised in the following pages. Using a variety of clearly laid out exercises students see and practice new vocabulary in its correct grammatical context and have the opportunity to work out the grammar rules for themselves. The new material is then reinforced through a series of exercises covering all four key skills based on authentic sources such as adverts, newspaper articles, invitations, letters, timetables, postcards, emails, public anouncements, telephone conversations and radio programmes. Role play exercises involve students in activities such as asking for information, arranging meetings and making telephone calls.

Each chapter ends with a "Zwischenspiel" a spread of culturally based listening or reading texts with activities. The workbook section contains exercises corresponding to those in the coursebook for additional practice together with full vocabulary lists.

Supplementary exercises and background cultural information are available free online. For full details please visit: http://www.hueber.de/schritte-international
