The programme’s communicative and inductive approach with life skills at its core gives learners the language skills they need to succeed in the real world.
Learning method support learners to enjoy the best combination of digital and print material. Our flexible approach combines language development with the crucial skills to be effective and adaptable for work, study and community engagement. Course topics are easily connected to areas key to personal success outside the classroom, such as ‘Study and Learning’, ‘Work and Career’ and ‘Community Involvement’. Learners are encouraged to do further research and prepare mini-presentations on subjects, which fosters learner initiative with a clear real-world purpose.

There is a focus on professional, academic and personal skills alongside the teaching of English through grammar, pronunciation and the four language skills of reading, writing, speaking & listening.
