The format of the lesson varies: at different times and to suit different needs the focus may be on grammar or vocabulary, reading, writing, speaking or listening skills or other aspects of the language. |
|
|
|
Pair and group work play a very important role in our teaching because they allow everyone to participate in activities at the same time and ensure maximum interaction. |
|
|
|
Our carefully chosen coursebooks form the basis of the syllabus but they are used selectively and your teacher will use a wide variety of supplementary resources, including audio and visual materials, the best in published texts, in-house materials, CD-ROMS, as well as computer and Internet activities. |
