The material is organised in a photocopiable format with user-friendly trainers' menus, which outline the language focus, type of activity, recommended level and timing. Each activity provides hints for follow-up sessions or further consolidation work. In addition, supplementary materials are provided on a link to the Academic Study Kit website.
