C1 WORD FORMATION

AIM

The aim of the Word Formation Course is for you to build your knowledge of word families

Word families are the different words formed from the same root word (‘depend’, ‘independent’, ‘independently’, etc.)

This course is for Use English Part Three, but it’s also important to broaden your vocabulary across the exam as a whole

In doing so, you’ll write and speak much more effectively

In addition, you’ll understand the reading texts and listening extracts much better
