Introduction

Are you trying to learn English? The illustrated teach-yourself tutorial “Spoken English Conversation Practice: 500 Mini-Dialogues for Beginners” allows you to greatly expand your active vocabulary and practice the use of various verb forms and prepositions in speech.

This book consists of 500 mini-dialogues on everyday topics interconnected by meaning and contains about 1,300 commonly used English words and expressions. A list containing the new words along with their transcription follows each dialogue. To reinforce learning, revision tasks are offered after each topic.

This tutorial is intended for beginning and intermediate learners of English.

Teachers of English can use this manual to create game situations so students can practice language constructions in a more emotional and effective way.

This tutorial uses American English; British equivalents of words and word combinations are given as required.
