Course Objectives

  • Maximising all key language skills, based on an increasing understanding over time of how English works

Content

For students who want to achieve the highest level they can in English, this course is ideal. You have the time and will receive the encouragement to learn over time the real heart of the language through your studies at School and when meeting and talking with new people.

Your confidence will grow as your acquired skills start to become 'second nature'.

You will receive advice about taking recognised international Examinations during your course with us, which you can sit if you want official proof of your language proficiency.

You also have the chance to plan for higher education at college or university. We can advise you on suitable courses, application procedures and help with letters of introduction to educational institutions to which you wish to apply


Methodology

Highly effective combination of Interactive Communicative Approach (emphasis on processes of communication) and Structural Approach (breakdown of language into grammatical units to re-inforce practical usage).

Summary

This course at The Language House will give you a wonderfully rewarding experience that will provide advantages and benefits that will stand you in good stead for the rest of your life.
