On Streamline

Streamline emerged as an exciting new course at the end of the 1970s, and still receives considerable appreciation from English language teachers.


The various components range from Beginner to Upper Intermediate and beyond.
A feature of particular interest is the manner in which one-off lessons can be delivered on particular areas of language – grammar, vocabulary, functional dialogues, etc.
And the Teacher Books provide robust lesson plans and guidance, so that each of the units can be delivered with minimal preparation time.
Many teachers recall Streamline fondly – ‘Willy The Kid’ has been cited more than once as the best-ever contextualization of the past simple of regular verbs. (Look for Unit 47 here.)
