Overview

The topics provide learners with meaningful situations where they can practise everyday English. In each unit of the course, learners are given opportunities to read, hear and use the language in effective daily communication.

A key strategy in the course is personalised learning, where learners are given the opportunity to bring their own experiences, attitudes, and feelings into the learning process. Learning is thus made more meaningful and real while allowing learners to make connections between their own experiences and the lessons in the classroom. Each unit of the course invites the learner to relate the content of the lesson to their own life, interests, and feelings.

Each level is conducted over 20 weeks (2 hours once a week), and provides learners with opportunities to practise all four skills – listening, speaking, reading, writing – as well as vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation. The topics have been carefully chosen to provide learners with meaningful situations through which to practise everyday English.

In each unit of the course, learners are given opportunities to read, hear and use the language in realistic communication. Learning is thus made more meaningful and real, and learners are able to make connections between their own experiences and the lessons in the classroom. Essentially, this course provides a supportive environment for learners to develop enabling skills such as oral fluency, grammatical accuracy, and knowledge of vocabulary and language forms and functions that will allow them to communicate effectively outside the classroom.
