The Academic Programme is designed for those who wish to study over a longer period of time and would like to develop all four language skills - speaking, listening, reading and writing. The course is structured so that students can progress and move up after each term to higher levels as their skills develop. There are four terms of 11 weeks per year separated by short breaks.
You can test your level online
The first lesson will be diagnostic so that the teacher can properly assess the students' knowledge and needs. After the lesson students will be classed in the most appropriate level.
These programmes develop all 4 language skills and cover grammar with an emphasis on oral communication.
Students are encouraged to practise the language and develop confidence and fluency in speaking.
From the first lesson your teacher will speak in the target language. The tutors are able to clarify meaning through the effective use of teaching aids like pictures and mime. The language taught is related to a specific topic so it is easy to understand the meaning of the new language, even without translation.
Students will be recommended to buy a text book depending on their class level.
