The Standard General English Course takes place every morning from Monday to Friday, leaving you free every afternoon to join the social programme or study in our Self-Access facilities.
Your morning lessons are divided into two parts and you will usually be taught by two different teachers.
In the first lesson the teacher concentrates on improving your accuracy, focusing primarily on grammar, reading and writing. The course-book is the basis for much of this lesson, with other resources also used in the class.
The second session concentrates on improving your overall communicative proficiency and fluency, focusing on your listening, speaking and vocabulary and consolidating the first part of the morning. You will also be able to work on specific pronunciation difficulties and improve the language you will use in real-life situations.
In addition, you'll have monthly tutorials with your main teacher where you can discuss progress and needs in more detail.
