Our general English courses gives students instruction in the language appropriate to their level. We aim to improve students understanding of grammar and increase their vocabulary. As the classes are taught exclusively in English and the teachers encourage oral communication skills significant progress should also be evident in the speaking and listening skills - but this is within a balanced curriculum that takes into consideration the needs of all the students. We use up-to-date course books and supplementary material in the classes. Teachers will also use a variety of teaching methods such as role play, grammar games, dictation, story-telling, video, free discussion and pronunciation drills. Consolidation exercises and compositions are given as homework.
