Survival English is a term we used to talk about the essential English someone needs to know to survive – live or work – in an environment that demands proficiency in English. This book is expected to be a practical guide for students who want to survive both in communication using English, as well as when they take English proficiency tests which are currently a prerequisite not only for graduating from university but also for applying for jobs and continuing their study to a higher level.
The valorization of the English language and its linkage to economic gain have motivated students across the globe and from different lingua-cultural backgrounds to study and be proficient in English. Linguistic resources relevant to students' needs are important factors that can help students acquire English language competence. Survival English is designed for (multilingual) students who aim to develop English language skills for daily, academic, and professional purposes.
