This course is for students who wish to communicate effectively in everyday situations and gain a sound understanding of the principles of the English language.
The General English for 30+ course will cover everyday English reading, writing and listening with an emphasis on speaking and practical communication in common situations, such as travelling, shopping, and leisure time. There will be support with grammar and pronunciation, and we will also introduce study skills to help you to become an efficient learner and to keep learning when you are out of the classroom.
The course will usually follow a course book, but we will also use a wide range of materials, including real-life listening and video examples, authentic texts and on-line resources. The content of the lessons is adapted to your needs and interests. All students have the opportunity to discuss, negotiate and plan the week’s work with their teacher and fellow students.
We will plan each week’s lessons after a discussion with the whole class to make sure that everyone learns the skills that they need.
We will check your progress throughout your stay: your teacher will let you know how you are doing in class, mark your homework and correct mistakes as well as giving you progress tests. We will adapt the lessons according to the results. At the end of the course you will receive a certificate stating the course you have taken and the level at which you have finished.
