Teaching Approach
Speaking
- Vocabulary, Grammar & Pronunciation are mainly practiced through interviews where students answer the teacher’s questions using new vocabulary & grammar right away
- The method encourages learning in lexical chunks, rather than on a word-by-word basis
- Just try to answer questions the way you have understood them. If you make a mistake, your teacher will correct & assist you
Reading & Listening
- Texts, videos & audio contain the same vocabulary and grammar which are trained and strengthened while learners answer teacher's questions for their practice & activation
- All activities are logically connected. Lots of connections make it very easy for your brain to “see” the word you want to recall when you are trying to remember it
- Discussions of articles, videos and audio develop the ability to express your thoughts in English fluently & accurately, to ask questions
Grammar & Vocabulary Exercises
- The main feature of our teaching method is a Complex of questions, videos, exercises, dictations, texts & audio tracks which are joined together and directed at providing students with the ability to comprehend & speak real-life English
- This complex was built in such a way that all necessary words and grammar can be easily and quickly mastered and remembered
