What is a DailyStep Lesson?

The audio lessons are in both British and American English, allowing users to choose the accent they speak, and learn to understand both accents. Each lesson consists of a written dialogue, 2 audio recordings of the dialogue (both British and American English, so with some language changes) and notes on style, vocabulary, intonation, functions and grammar. There are 2 versions of each audio file – one at natural speed and the other at 65% of natural speed, allowing you to really understand how the spoken language works. The beginner and elementary level lessons also come with a translation into French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese or Korean. When you first open a lesson, the text is hidden so you can test comprehension before revealing the text to practice fluency and pronunciation.

Users also have access to an archive of audio grammar lessons, IELTS practice lessons, pronunciation tips and other learning materials.
