Lecture Ready prepares students for academic lectures by practising targeted lecture language. Students then 'attend' actual lectures via DVD or VHS tape to experience the demands of an actual lecture. The series can be used as a core text in a pre-academic listening comprehension/speaking class, or as a supplementary text in an academic preparatory course.
