Course Content

Each student completes a pre-test and Needs Analysis Questionnaire before or on arrival. The teacher then uses this proposal to develop a tailored course.  Language input comes from various sources including course books, newspapers, the internet etc. to facilitate the learning outcomes of the participant. The teaching approach is communicative and task-based with the emphasis on language production. 

One of the major benefits of this type of programme is that the teachers can assess their student’s learning requirements and will adapt the teaching methods to their learning style and pace.

These lessons can concentrate either on General English or on any specialist areas that the student is interested in (such as business, work presentations, marketing or management, etc.)
