On two afternoons, if your level is upper-intermediate and above, you can choose to study one of the following electives. If your level is elementary, pre-intermediate or intermediate you will remain with your class teacher and will concentrate on improving your General English and, in particular, on communication and conversation skills. Electives available include:

 

Business English:
(2 levels) The aim is for you to learn the correct English to use in letters, on the telephone, in meetings and when giving presentations. The course also covers topics such as marketing, company structure, import and export, employment, tourism, finance and banking. You can prepare for the LCCIEB (English for Business) level 2 Exam.

British Life and Culture:
An introduction to Britain and the way the British live, their traditions and customs, history, politics, accent, class system and society.

Conversation and Communication:
Designed specifically to improve listening, speaking and pronunciation skills. You are encouraged to use the language you have acquired to communicate freely through the use of role plays, talks, information gap activities, discussion on current events, video, drama and music. Feedback sessions ensure that attention is paid to accuracy at all times.

English through Music and Song
(depends on demand) This course will cover a wide range of music and will practise all the language skills: reading, writing and speaking as well as listening.
Not for those who just want to listen to pop music!
