    About this ebook

    Based on the Speech Plasma Method, the book is designed to teach students of English to use the language at elementary level. The volume contains forty dialogues and their summaries. The summaries actually serve as fluency practice training. This volume is ideal for the students who can speak English a little, at elementary level, but lack fluency, which makes them feel confused and frustrated. The book is aimed at the development of the learner's fluency in speech through fluency practice drills. The drills are similar to physical exercises that can be practised regularly, repeated over and over again, concentrating either on their intensity and force or on rapidness and speed. The volume contains 40 dialogues and 120 fluency practice drills. Each dialogue is followed by three stories: two of them are told by the participants of the dialogue and the third one is a summary of the conversation narrated by a third person.
