Im BEP 55 – Airport Departures and Take Off, Alan, the main character in our story, and Honesto, his colleague, have left Hong Kong for San Francisco.

3 Gedanken zu „BEP 56 – Geschäftsreise 2: Zoll und Einwanderung”

  1. It is a very good tool for teachers like me who are looking for authentic material for their students. Jedoch, for most intermediate students, theextralanguage explanations might make it hard for students to concentrate on the target language and also find it difficult to follow the amount of information in the whole listening.

    As a teacher, I will select only the dialog to work with private students. I may assign the whole listening to more advanced ESL students.

  2. Thanks for your comment. I tend to agree with you that the explanations can sometimes be a bit too ‘dense’, especially for intermediate users and below.

    This is one of the reasons we publish a PhraseCast for each podcast. The PhraseCasts contain just the dialog, examples phrases and the speaking practice from each lesson. Besides being more accessible for lower level learners, they are a useful revision tool for more advanced students.
