Laser New Edition is now a five-level course, with the addition of the new levels A1+ and A2, designed to cater to younger exam students. It is the perfect preparation for teenagers in secondary education working towards school-leaving exams and the Cambridge English KET, PET and First exams.

The vibrant topic-based units cover the lexical and grammatical syllabus of the Breakthrough to Vantage levels of the CEFR. The course integrates development of the key reading, writing, listening and speaking skills, while regular revision sections check continuous progress. Each Student's Book comes with a CD-ROM that reinforces the structures and vocabulary learnt in each unit. The Workbooks are complete with Audio CD, making them ideal for homework, and the Teacher's Books include a DVD-ROM with tests, a test generator and teacher-training videos. Class Audio CDs are also available.

What makes Laser special?

- Laser New Edition combines a clear and practical focus on exams preparation, without being an explicit exam preparation course, allowing students to improve their level of general English too.

- A Get Ready! section (Get Warmed Up! in later levels) at the beginning of every unit offers structured reading preparation tasks and introduces the key vocabulary for the topic.

- In levels A1+ and A2, two Wordpower! sections per unit present and practice key lexis related to the unit topic. In later levels, these are replaced by more sophisticated Dictionary Corner sections, which encourage the use of dictionaries and more autonomous learning.

- There is a comprehensive writing activity at the end of each unit. Project Planner sections in earlier levels provide more structured support in organizing writing tasks, while levels B1 to B2 include Composition Planners separately at the end of the Student's Book, to assist with planning.

- A new Webquest feature every other unit provides a fun wrap-up activity for students where they have to use independent research to find answers on the Internet.

- An excellent bank of reference material is supplied at the end of the Student's Book: a Writing Database, a Vocabulary Database, a Speaking Database, and a Grammar Database, amongst others.

- The Teacher's Book is packaged with a DVD-ROM containing editable tests, a test generator and teacher's support videos, as well as a digital version of the Student's Book, with integrated audio.
