Your course:

As well as grammar analysis and practice, this course integrates speaking, writing, listening
and reading skills using a communicative approach. The focus of the course is for you to
communicate successfully with others; this means that error correction takes place at
certain points in the lesson, not necessarily every time a mistake is made.

Language review and assessment:

You will complete and receive feedback on two writing and speaking tasks over the 12-
week period. In addition, you will have the opportunity to review your knowledge of the
vocabulary and grammar studied on the course. Your teacher will give you more
information about this on the first day of your course.

Making the most of your course:

be active and use your English as much as possible inside and outside the classroom
keep your notes organised and add to them throughout the course
try to always do your homework
make use of the resources we have in the library here @british
