English Grammar courses are taught in a communicative manner, with an
emphasis on using the structures orally. Communicative methodology is
also used in courses for the development of English Vocabulary, Idioms
and Pronunciation. Teachers work with language functions and themes. They
use pair and group activities to improve Listening, Speaking, Reading,
and Writing skills. Our English Conversation courses use themes to practice
Listening and Speaking skills with some emphasis on Reading and Writing.
English Language Levels
A test is given on the first day of the course, to evaluate each student's
ability in English Grammar and Conversation. Students are then placed in
separate levels according to their English Grammar and Conversation skills.
Students usually progress to higher levels each month. There are 16 levels.
