Speaking Skills - Summarising

Learn English with the British Council and Premier League - A podcast by Jack Radford

Categories:

In this week's Premier Skills English Podcast, Jack and Rich say goodbye to the World Cup in Russia. Jack didn't watch the World Cup Final because he got the kick-off time wrong so Rich sums up what happened. The language focus is on summarising skills and they talk about what you need to do to give a good summary for someone and also look at lots of words and phrases you can use when summarising something. They also take a look at some common collocations with the words 'match' and 'game'. Your task is to write a summary of a football match or tournament, a book or a film or a recent news story. As always, we also have a new football phrase for you to guess at the end of the podcast. Enjoy!
