English for students
Secondary schools, professional schools, universities
English is an absolute necessity for all students. Passing
English exams is certainly the first goal, but in the long term it is even
more important to gain a real knowledge of the language. This knowledge
will prepare students to communicate well in English and allow them to exploit
all the cultural, social and career opportunities both nationally and internationally.
We provide individual lessons (1-to-1) or small group
lessons of maximum 4 students.
Our lessons and courses are provided by qualified
English mother tongue teachers. Our method of teaching is the communicative
approach.
Courses and lessons are organised to stimulate the
curiosity and interaction with the student. The strong emphasis placed
on conversation and interesting, up-to-date digital support material (texts,
explanations, exercises, etc.) make the lessons enjoyable and most importantly
effective.
Lessons are customised as much as possible to the
specific needs of the individual student or group, focusing on the areas
of greatest difficulty (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, etc.).
In the event of group lessons, each student can connect
from the place he/she happens to be in. It is not necessary for students
to travel to a common meeting place. Each student must have a computer and
a fast broadband connection (at least 8 Mb/s).
Lessons are available from 8:00am to 8:00pm Monday
to Friday and from 8:00am to 1:00pm on Saturday (GMT-Dublin time). Please
check your corresponding local time at
www.timeanddate.com ►.
The levels
The Students’ English course is divided into 6 levels
with reference to the
Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) ►:
● CEFR A1: (beginner);
● CEFR A2: (elementary);
● CEFR B1: (pre-intermediate);
● CEFR B2: (intermediate);
● CEFR C1: (upper-intermediate);
● CEFR C2: (advanced).
The standard duration of each level is 60 hours.
The real duration may vary depending on the student’s initial knowledge
of English and the speed of student learning.
You can choose the number of lessons you prefer, from
a short package of a few hours to a complete course package of sixty hours.
