Teachers
      
Our teachers are all native speakers, fully qualified and university graduates. Our teachers comprise a highly motivate, convivial and friendly team.
Teaching is hard work and very often undervalued and thankless. Our teachers, however, know that the teaching and learning experience is more than just language, more than just words (as our colleagues in Tandem International put it): it is a unique and rewarding experience in cross-cultural communication involving the mutual sharing of all kinds of knowledge, knowledge about language, about people, about work, about life, and about the world at large.

Classes are designed to develop communication skills, so the emphasis is on oral participation, to develop linguistic competence. Tuition takes place using only the target language, to maximise acquisition. Students are tested (click here to sit this test online to find your level) at the start of their course to ascertain problem areas. They are then placed into classes according to level.
      
All classes are kept small, which encourages student participation and ensures that each student will have personal attention. A typical class will have no more than 12 students.
      
Courses will differ according to the needs of each group or on the chosen course but they will invariably include the development of:
      
Speaking skills:
      
The main emphasis will be on this area, to maximise competence in the language. It will involve development of structure, range of expression and vocabulary, intonation, stress, pronunciation, etc. Simulated workplace and social situations will be covered including: one to one and group meetings, confrontations and presentations.
      
Reading skills:
      
Reading for gist, and specific information, reading and note taking, vocabulary recognition and dictionary skills etc.
      
Listening skills:
      
Understanding a variety of styles and speeds, listening and notetaking, understanding instructions etc.
      
Writing:
      
This can take place in class or as homework assignments which can include: the development of clarity in a range of texts - letters, memos, reports, etc.

At regular intervals, students are asked to complete review forms on course content and teacher performance.

A selection of materials will be used during the course, although students at each level will be using a core text to help in continuity of structure development.

Other materials used can include selected texts for speaking, listening, reading & writing skills including authentic reading and listening material, and visuals.

Our approach to language training is based on learner needs and specific courses can be designed to suit each group of students.
