& EXAM English COURSES
Courses
We run full time courses in the English
Language for students of all ages (minimum age 16), all year round. The
School is only closed for one week at Christmas. You can enrol at any
time and start any Monday. Our flexible timetable allows you to study
at the time that suits you. You may choose our morning or afternoon
sessions.
Our methods and approach to teaching English
help students develop their language skills in order to be able to
communicate effectively in an English speaking environment. Our lessons
are based around topics which incorporate the basic skills of speaking,
listening, reading and writing.
Our teachers use modern course books and
audio-visual material. Every effort is made to make your learning
experience at East London School of English both varied and exciting.
Methodology
Student-centred teaching is recognised as the
most effective way to learn languages. The Director of Studies guides
all teachers in focussing on each individual’s language needs. Teaching
includes all aspects of the English language such as grammar,
functions, phonology and vocabulary. We use interesting classroom
activities carried out through pair and group work to encourage
interaction and to motivate students. Our friendly staff enjoy a very
good relationship with the students, creating the optimum environment
for learning.
Our staff offer guidance and support to all
our students from the moment they enquire about the courses until they
complete their studies.
