This programme is designed to meet the
demands of English on the second-language
user. It exposes the learners to a general
upgrading of English skills. Listening, speaking,
reading and writing skills are addressed in a
participative, easy-to-understand way. The
learners are led to become more confident in
an English environment.
Course Objectives
This course is intended to serve as a language
enrichment course as well as an introduction
to the English-speaking cultural climate.
The content presented is practical and
relevant to the learner's needs. For that
reason, there is no curriculum cast in stone.
Rather, the facilitator uses a basic core
syllabus based on common errors experienced
by second language users as well as basic
grammar structures.
According to the needs of the learners' as well
as the problems experienced during the
course, the syllabus will be adapted to answer
those needs and correct the errors that occur.
Underlying the content is a cognitive
development methodology. The course
contains functional and business language
that is presented in an active, participative
structure. It is both stimulating and
challenging.
Should it be required, a pre- and post
assessment on functional language ability can
be conducted. This assessment identifies
areas for improvement and measures the
learner's level of functioning in a second
language environment.
Course Designed For

speakers will benefit from exposure to this
practical, hands on programme.
