If English is not your first language and you need to improve your linguistic ability, you have come to the right place.
Courses with you in mind
Our English-language courses follow a systematic process and learner-centred model of instructional design.
Needs analysis. We identify your learning needs and objectives. We also conduct a diagnostic assessment to determine your current language proficiency.
Program creation. We develop materials, teaching approaches, and assessments that align with your stated needs and objectives.
Program implementation. We finally get to teach you! Using your feedback and our formative assessments, we refine and adapt your program as necessary.
Evaluation. We conduct a summative assessment of your learning and the effectiveness of the program overall. We then identify areas for improvement and make iterative changes to future courses where necessary.
Teaching that keeps you on track
Successful learning journeys are driven by a mix of sustained commitment and expert guidance. Our courses help ensure this in at least four ways.
One-on-one / small-group lessons. We limit the number of learners in any one class as this ensures personalized attention and support.
Targeted instruction. We focus on your specific goals and needs. Our expertise covers all areas of language instruction, including grammatical accuracy, conversational fluency, vocabulary development, cultural awareness, pronunciation and intonation, listening and reading comprehension, and language learning strategies.
Personalized error correction. During each lesson, we track your language errors. We then use this information to identify ingrained habits and discuss alternatives that will help improve how you express yourself in English.
Tailor-made content. We create instructional materials that are based on your unique work-related deliverables (e.g., reports, presentations, end-of-year reviews, and emails). We also design role-plays, simulations, and discussion-based activities that develop your spoken fluency and equip you with strategies you can immediately apply to your work environment.
