Teaching method
Each participant is taught by several teachers. Participants are therefore exposed to different teaching methods as well as different personalities, voices, and accents, which helps to maintain and promote concentration. An academic spirit, a love of debate, and intellectual agility help learners gain confidence and eloquence.
The course is made up of different modules. The interaction of different elements consolidates and develops the learner's language skills in a comprehensive manner.
Course content
The course focuses on core competencies that teach learners essential grammar, comprehension, accuracy, and communication skills.
- Teachers convey job-related content and introduce learners to new ideas and approaches using authentic materials from industries such as finance, technology, and commerce.
- By discussing current international affairs and topical issues, participants develop their speaking, expression, and negotiation skills while broadening their worldview.
Accommodation with a host family includes half board for all students. All participants are accommodated in single rooms. Breakfast and a hot dinner are taken together with the host family.
