One-to-one consultation sessions support students in improving their speaking, writing, reading, listening and/or presentation skills. Students should be prepared with any questions, assignments and/or materials they would like to review with their tutor. Please send any materials and/or book pages via email at least 48 hours in advance.
*Note: Proofreading assignments will require students to schedule a session with the tutor in advance, and be worked on together.
The English Corner functions as a discussion group, mediated by an English instructor. Students engage with each other regarding a topic of the day and are encouraged to utilize new vocabulary and different speech patterns.
Speaking sessions will focus on enhancing student's pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency and knowledge of sentence structures, as well as verbal professional and casual communication skills. These sessions aim to make student's more confident when expressing their ideas and opinions, and when asking and answering questions.
Reading sessions aim to improve written English comprehension. During these sessions, students will read a passage such as a magazine or news article. As they read the passage out loud, the instructor will correct any pronunciation errors. Afterward, students will be tasked with answering prompts regarding the passage and discussing its contents.
Culture and language are interwoven. Our cultural workshops are designed to widen students' horizons by introducing them to the ways in which various cultural facets such as food, music, art, customs and literature would leave a footprint in language.
