The course book is one of the most essential elements if you are someone that would like to improve his or her foreign language skills or even to learn a new one. When people talk about course books, I usually wonder if they really know how to choose the right one. In my opinion, too many things depend on course books. In other words, this decision isn’t easy to make. So it is very important to know how to choose the most suitable course book. As we know usually, there are three main books: student’s book, workbook and teacher’s resource book. We could find cassettes or CDs that we can use at home and in classroom. These cassettes and CDs help students to improve such skill as listening, which is wonderful for students of all levels. Sometimes the forth course book could be a test book, where the teacher can see the progress of each student. If you learn the foreign language by yourself, this test book could show you your strong points and weak points. For example, in Grammar, that would help you in the future because you will correctly understand what you should improve. Sometimes, in student’s book you could read some useful recommendations from the authors of these course books. Usually such recommendations are about improving your language skills or preparing for an exam. This kind of information will help you in future learning plans. There are four main skills that could be improved with the help of a course book, such as writing, listening, reading and speaking. All of these skills are very important, if students want to have a balanced knowledge of the language. First, there are many publishers all over the world. If we speak about English course books, there could be different publishing houses such as Cambridge University Press, Oxford University Press, Macmillan Publishers, Pearson Education and so on and so forth. Secondly, each of these publishing houses propose a variety of course books. They have different levels such as A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2, where A1 is for beginners and C2 for experienced learners who want to work on their proficiency. These books can also be for different age groups. Thirdly, people should decide for what purpose they want to buy this or that course book because there are plenty of course books for group lessons and just as many for one-to-one lessons. In bookshops, we also can find many books for self-study. In addition, I would like to mention that all course books that are chosen by teachers, students or language schools should respond to the needs of the students. In the modern world, when people have this possibility to take such exams as IELTS and TOEFL, they prefer to learn their language with internationally recognized books. In many countries, some of these books are adapted and others are not, so that should also be taken into account. With the help of these course books people could not only improve their four language skills, but also take an exam after learning. Teachers, students or/and language schools should also think whether this course book will be the main manual of the learning process or it will be an additional part of the study. Finally, once you have the appropriate course book, the motivation for learning is also very important. So don’t forget about motivation either.
