Passionate, well-prepared and dynamic – that’s the best way to describe our teachers. They have all had CELTA or TESOL teacher training and many also possess, or are working towards a DELTA or MA.
Communicative Approach
We mainly use inductive teaching approaches, also known as “inquiry” or “discovery” teaching. This means that the teacher is a guide, making it a more student-centered method. We call it our Communicative Approach and it is a mix of the following methodologies and approaches:
Task Based Learning
Students are given a task, problem, activity, or topic
Students work together on the task, and practice realistic language
They discover a particular language point through the language used to solve the task.
The Lexical Approach
Students focus on understanding and producing frequently used fixed expressions as “chunks” or “words that go together, like “Could you tell me” + wh?, or “That’s interesting!”
Grammar is analysed as vocabulary in a special pattern.
Guided Discovery
The teacher provides examples
Learners find out the rules themselves
Teachers are facilitators.
