Methodology & assessment
The key concept of the course is communication. We use task- based, collaborative and humanistic approaches to create a positive learning environment where the focus is on practical classroom activities. This covers all aspects of English language skills - speaking, listening, reading, writing and mediation as well as pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar activities.
Class dynamics include individual, pair and group work, discussions, debates, roleplays, presentations, written tasks and listening exercises. Through a friendly, supportive atmosphere, participants are encouraged to share their own ideas and experience while sharing with other international students.
Participants receive weekly feedback based on both self-evaluation and personal tutorials with the teachers, where objectives are reviewed, progress is discussed and homework is set, if necessary. Areas for improvement are addressed through revision sessions and progress tests
