Communication, spoken interaction and active listening are the main areas that teachers focus on, but all skills are integrated into lessons. You will practice reading and listening strategies as well as tasks to develop the writing skill. Consolidation and revision of new language is achieved though dynamic and engaging lesson activities.

Students should ask their teacher if they would like any extra exercises/activities. You can also meet with the Academic Team to develop a personalised Self-Study Programme.

There is a Weekly Progress Review every Friday. This short test is designed to highlight any areas studied that week that may need further work.

You should come and talk to the Academic Team as soon as possible to discuss your level. You should always consult your teacher first with any doubts, as they are the best person to guide you

Again, you should consult your teacher first. If, after speaking to your teacher, you still feel that the class is too easy, you should arrange to meet the Director of Studies, who will consult your teacher and organise a reassessment if necessary.

Your progress is monitored in class by your teachers. You can expect regular feedback on your classwork and when your teacher thinks you are ready for the next level, they will tell the Academic Team, who will organize a Level Test. The Level Test involves a written Grammar, Vocabulary, & Writing Test as well as a Speaking Test. If the Academic Team believe that you are ready to move to the next level, you will change class the week after your Level Test.
