Pre-Assessment Test
Before enrolling to any of our class, every student will be given two pre-assessment tests, where we will check your English proficiency level in terms of grammar and vocabulary. Based on your results, a consultant will suggest you a required training with a tailored schedule.
Our classes
Speaking
Our interactive speaking classes are designed to break the language barrier and start generating new ideas on various topics. In the class all students work in pairs or in groups, where they discuss topics and share ideas. In speaking our priority is not grammar but mainly, help students to overcome fear of talking, break the habit of thinking in their native language and encourage to think broader by producing fresh ideas.
Writing
Writing, on the other hand, is where we are solely focused on students’ grammar and vocabulary. After a detailed explanation of different types of essay for general and academic IELTS, students will be given topics to write essays on and relevant vocabulary.
Reading
During reading classes students are being explained the format of the test and type of the questions they will meet during exam, followed by tips and tricks. The trainer will share with his/her own different techniques of reading passages and answer following questions. All students will be given a practice test to try, after which we can observe where is a student standing at and where should he/she focus on.
Listening
Listening is one of the toughest sections for all students. Our teaching approach is very flexible, where the trainer explains what techniques and tactics students should use to pass listening exam. Listening classes also include interactive activities, which are focused on the improvement of listening skills.
The Information Age
Each and every class is equipped with interactive white boards, which our trainers use during classes to make the learning process more interesting and motivating. We also use special apps and programs that allow students to access materials online and make it much faster and easier to contact with a trainer and track their progress.
