Teaching methods

Teaching methods

Teaching methods depending on what is being taught: grammar, comprehension, conversation , listening etc. Most students of English make the same type of errors and our lessons focus on these as well as providing valuable practice. All teachers are fully qualified and selected for their teaching skills.

Frequency of Lessons

Frequency of Lessons

The frequency of lessons depends on your learning objectives , and your willingness to apply what you learn in the lessons.
Students can choose the time, place and intensity of the teaching schedule so as to fit in with their personal and work commitments. 

The best way to learn is to take regular lessons spread over a few weeks on a semi-intensive basis (depends on your own schedule of course). Students using the “one-lesson-a-week” approach often take many months. Please remember, the choice is yours.

Whatever your needs, the tutor will design the lesson according to your specific needs based on a detailed needs analysis.

What does Language Level A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2

What does Language Level A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2 mean?



The Common European Framework describes what a learner is supposed to be able to do in reading, listening, speaking and writing at each level:


A1 - Can understand and use familiar everyday expressions and very basic phrases aimed at the satisfaction of needs of a concrete type. Can introduce him/herself and others and can ask and answer questions about personal details such as where he/she lives, people he/she knows and things he/she has. Can interact in a simple way provided the other person talks slowly and clearly and is prepared to help.

 

A2 - Can understand sentences and frequently used expressions related to areas of most immediate relevance (e.g. very basic personal and family information, shopping, local geography, employment). Can communicate in simple and routine tasks requiring a simple and direct exchange of information on familiar and routine matters. Can describe in simple terms aspects of his/her background, immediate environment and matters in areas of immediate need.

 

B1 - Can understand the main points of clear standard input on familiar matters regularly encountered in work, school, leisure, etc. Can deal with most situations likely to arise whilst travelling in an area where the language is spoken. Can produce simple connected text on topics which are familiar or of personal interest. Can describe experiences and events, dreams, hopes & ambitions and briefly give reasons and explanations for opinions and plans.

 

B2 - Can understand the main ideas of complex text on both concrete and abstract topics, including technical discussions in his/her field of specialisation. Can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party. Can produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects and explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options.

 

C1 - Can understand a wide range of demanding, longer texts, and recognise implicit meaning. Can express him/herself fluently and spontaneously without much obvious searching for expressions. Can use language flexibly and effectively for social, academic and professional purposes. Can produce clear, well-structured, detailed text on complex subjects, showing controlled use of organisational patterns, connectors and cohesive devices.

 

C2 - Can understand with ease virtually everything heard or read. Can summarise information from different spoken and written sources, reconstructing arguments and accounts in a coherent presentation. Can express him/herself spontaneously, very fluently and precisely, differentiating finer shades of meaning even in the most complex situations.
