ㆍ레벨: 전 레벨 This course is suitable for you if you would like to become a confident speaker of English and maximize your ability to use English in everyday situations. Intensive English is a group course which is ideal for learning everyday English with an emphasis on fluent communication and practical language skills. This is a group course with classes of up to 12 or 15 people. The course runs for 1-4 weeks. Intensive English includes 22.5 hours of English lessons per week, in two parts: 20 lessons (15 hours) of General English, which follows the same programme as our General English courses, and 10 further lessons (7.5 hours) of communication skills, which may be with different students. The General English component includes 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. You will follow a course book, and the teacher will also use a range of additional materials. The Intensive English component focuses on practical communication rather than grammar, and explores a greater range of situations and a wider use of language. Your teacher will choose materials and exercises to suit the interests of the class. New students can join this course at the start of any week, and we will plan each week’s lessons after discussions with the whole class to make sure that everyone learns the skills that they need. Your progress will be monitored constantly in a variety of ways. The teachers will give you continuous feedback, assess your work in class, mark your homework, correct your mistakes and encourage self and peer correction. You will receive a certificate at the end of the course which will state the course you have taken and the final level at which you studied.
