Survival English 101 is the first book in the Survival English series created by Washington Language Institute (WLI) for English as a Second Language (ESL) students. At WLI, we have been teaching our students to be proficient in reading, writing, and speaking English for over ten years and one factor that makes our Survival English book series so unique is that it is derived from the perspectives of non-native English speakers. A compilation of questions from foreign students coupled with our desire to understand their perspective of learning English has brought forth this unique and essential book for all ESL students. This first book, Survival English 101, focuses on the culture and the traditions that have made America a great nation. Included in this book is a distinctive method toward an interactive approach to learning English from the foreign students' viewpoint. Survival English 101 is a superb primer for international students coming into the U.S., and a great, interactive, fun book for families, friends and foreign visitors.Survival English 101 has six primary contents: Holidays and Culture in America with American Jokes, American Idioms, Mobile Phone Text Abbreviations and Idioms, Confusing and Misused Words, and American Body Languages. Each of the contents advances the ESL student towards a greater understanding and helpful application to living in America.
