Four days of intensive English practice centered around feeling confident interacting in the language.

Methodology & assessment
The approach used is highly practical and based on the previous professional experiences that the trainer has been accumulating in both the language and coaching fields. This course focuses on learning by doing through conversational abilities. The course will be adapted to the students’ level of English and their main objectives within the language. An easy ‘placement’ test will be given at the beginning to position the students to understand their levels before the course starts. This is not to reject students, but to understand how the trainer can best serve them!
