Course structure

The modules take place in a relaxed atmosphere where everyone participates actively. This both promotes language learning and stimulates enjoyment of self-expression.

The modules focus on communication and developing the know-how that will enable participants to use the language in different contexts for a variety of purposes (speaking, understanding, reading, writing) and the development of skills for independent learning. A wide range of methods and tasks are used, which are up-to-date and interesting: discussions, listening tasks, role-plays, visuals, games, videos, reflection on the learning process, etc.

Practice activities sessions form an integral part of the Integral Skills module from Beginners to B2 except for certain specific modules. 

These sessions allow oyu to choose which aspects of the language you wish to develop, according to your objectives, interests, and weaknesses, and how you will learn (individually, in a group). During most of the practice activities, someone will support you as you learn. 

You will also benefit from online comments in a learning journal in which you document the work you have done. 

In order to make your language learning as effective as possible and make real progress, you are strongly advised to devote to study on your own; you should spend about one hour per week for an Integrated Skills module, and even more for an Integrated Skills module with an external exam option.
