Combination Course
Description
The Combination Course is usually chosen by people learning English for
professional purposes. General English group work is followed by
individual tuition in areas of English specific to your own business or
academic study. This combined approach allows you to aim for fluency in
the international setting of the classroom while you and your tutor
examine particular problems or areas of interest such as English for
business, tourism, banking or marketing. It is a demanding but
rewarding pattern of work.
The course includes Spoken Performance Workshops to develop active expression of the language. Plenary is a news review session in which selected students present the previous day's news for a brief group discussion.
In all courses, the duration of a lesson is 60 minutes. Some lessons may be taught as 1.5 hour sessions.
