About this ebook
HOW TO MASTER ENGLISH
This is the second book in the very popular series.
Lots of intermediate English speakers tend to get trapped using the same vocabulary over and over again. They often only speak about subjects they know the words for and avoid anything outside of their 'comfort zone'. The problem with this is that even though they sound ok, they never really get any better.
If you really want to improve, you need to be able to speak about a wide range of topics. For this, you will need to learn the special vocabulary connected to these topics.
What are the benefits of using this book?
You will learn over 200 useful words and phrases.
You will be able to speak about 12 new topics with confidence. This will greatly improve your English conversational ability.
All new words and phrases are introduced in fun and interesting articles and stories. So you will learn naturally.
Everything is explained in easy to understand English, so you can get used to 'thinking in English'.
There are 100's of example sentences to help you understand how these words and phrases are used in everyday language.
For each topic I have listed useful television shows and YouTube channels to help you practice your new vocabulary.
What topics will I be able to speak about after I read this book?
Friendship
Family
Personality
Fashion
Gossip
Health
Money
Social Media
Job Hunting
Films
Alcohol
Parenting

How to become a fluent English speaker
This book is intended for intermediate English learners.
There are many things that make an excellent English speaker but one of the main things is that they can speak about a lot of different topics easily. Many students at the intermediate level can speak quite well about some topics but get completely lost when someone talks about an unfamiliar subject. This book helps you to build your vocabulary in 12 very useful and common subjects.
Six ways this book will help you towards English fluency
One) This book covers 12 very common topics. The vocabulary used is ‘specialised’ but is also in everyday use.
Two) If you can only speak about a few limited subjects you will not become fluent. This book helps you to break out of these limits.
Three) This book features over 200 new words and phrases introduced in context (short stories or articles). This makes it both fun to learn and easy to see how they are actually used.
Four) Each new word or phrase is explained in simple English. This will help you get used to thinking in English rather than translating from your own language all of the time.
Five) There are example sentences for each new word or phrase. This will help you master both the meaning and the use of the word.
Six) At the end of each chapter there is an ‘Extra Practice’ section. This features TV shows and Youtube channels that will help you practice the language.
Ok let’s get started.

Part One
Are you one of those people who struggles to make ends meet? Are you facing large amounts of debt? This can be a frightening time. One of the most important things to remember is that you can overcome it. By using a proper budget you can cut down on your spending. The first thing you need to do is consider your income. Write down how much money you have coming in every month. Then note down what you need to buy and how much it all costs. Then you will see clearly how you can live within your means.
Vocabulary and Phrases:
To make ends meet: this is when you earn just enough money to live, but no more. You have no extra money left over after living expenses.
Example: Between my husband’s and my wage we only just make ends meet.
To have debt/to be in debt: to owe money to someone/a bank etc. You need to re-pay someone money at one point.
Example 1: I have quite a lot of debt so there’s no way I can quit my job at the moment.
Example 2: I’m in debt to the bank.
A budget/to budget: This is a fixed amount of money you have to spend on something. ‘To budget’ is when you are careful to only spend a certain amount of money.
Example 1: My budget for food shopping is about £50.
Example 2: I’ve had to budget a little this week as I had less money than I
