Stanag 6001 Functional Language. Exam Booster Level 2 & 3
You also get a BONUS:
an AUDIO version of the e-book so that you can listen to all the expressions.
- Have you ever felt that you know grammar rules and quite a lot of vocabulary but somehow… you are not able to put it all IN PRACTICE in life situations and demonstrate it on the exam?
- Are you confused when it comes to using expressions in a FORMAL vs. INFORMAL context?
- Do you end up TRANSLATING the expressions from your native language as you don’t know their EQUIVALENTS in English?
Hey, I got your back
Functional language is the language we use to perform various ‘functions’ in specific situations, such as inviting, giving advice, comparing, speculating or disagreeing, to name a few.
It allows you to COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY in different situations (buying a ticket, putting forward suggestions in a meeting, describing circumstances of a range accident to your superior or complaining in a restaurant). Do they sound like exam tasks in your role plays, formal letters or reports? That’s because they are. 🙂
Functional language offers students the link to the real word by sounding more natural, but also directly targets exam English (e.g. how to politely disagree with someone).
This e-book was created in order to help you boost your STANAG 6001 (SLP 2 and 3) exam performance.
