The Concept of ENGLISH ALIVE
The
concept is a simple one: We take a team of mother-tongue
speakers (qualified EFL teachers) into schools
overseas to teach English intensively for 5 or
more days. The classes are small, usually no larger
than 20, average 16, an ideal environment for
communicative activities. The course provides
a platform for students to activate their English
in an exciting and reassuring environment.
The Aims of ENGLISH ALIVE
Again
the aims are simple. Our main aim is to bring
English alive. We build from the students' language
base and provide the environment and opportunities
for students to use the English they have already
acquired. The emphasis is on improving linguistic
confidence, language fluency and working on pronunciation/intonation
skills.
It
must be stressed that our ENGLISH ALIVE programme
is complementary to the more formal year-round
classroom work undertaken by students in their
own schools. You as an English language teacher
have built the foundations from which we can now
work. We work in collaboration and not in isolation
or in competition with you.
