Intensive English - Cambridge English Language Course
For students who want to dedicate more time to reaching their English goals quickly and personalise their course through a choice of electives, the Intensive course offers a chance to gain greater fluency and accuracy in a short period of time.
What can you expect on this course?
More exposure to English
The more exposure you have to English, the better your English learning will be. You can expect plenty of confidence-building speaking-practice, exercises, explanations, information and feedback - all delivered in a fun and effective way by dedicated teachers.
Core English plus your choice of elective
It's your English course, so you get to decide what you want to study! In your third module you can choose from a number of options. Focus on the areas of your English that you want to improve. This will definitely help you make the most of your time on your English course.
Maximum teacher contact time
Six lessons a day means that you have more time with your teachers. They will be there to correct your mistakes and point you in the right direction. Their creative and energising lessons will help you to speak English with greater confidence. Your teachers will guide your progress every step of the way!
Intensive focus on all skills
The longer in lesson, the longer you can seriously focus on your four key skills: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing. Of course other skills such as pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and spelling all play a role in effective English communication. On an Intensive English course you will have the time and opportunity to work on all of these.
Topic based lessons in everyday contexts
With newspapers, CD's, internet, video and other authentic resources, our teachers use 'real-life' materials that not only help you to understand how English is used by native speakers, but these materials help you to study English independently long after you have left EC. Every lesson is based on a fixed topic and all the essential English, that you need to know, is taught within the context of the topic. You will then be able to apply your new-found skills correctly in other situations.
A focused yet relaxed classroom environment
Happy students learn better than unhappy ones! That's not a secret, but it's something that we at EC strongly believe. And so our classrooms are places where hard work is carried out in informal and relaxed settings. Your ability and motivation will improve in a classroom with a great atmosphere.
