Our general English course provides fun and engaging lessons that not only progress your child’s English skills but also inspire them to be lifelong learners of the language.
Our English Explorers course is designed to be interactive and give students the everyday language skills they need to make new friends from the UK and around the world. By focusing on improving your child’s vocabulary, grammar, reading, writing and speaking through project work and games, our primary aim is to provide your child with every opportunity to use their English in fun real-world situations.
Everything we do on our English Explorers course at Twyford is to help our young learners to truly love and feel proud of their progress in English. Everything we achieve begins with the nurturing, supportive and enthusiastic presence of our compassionate staff who are dedicated to providing your children with an amazing learning experience that will live with them for years to come.
All of our teachers follow a communicative method to teaching English. This means that all activities, no matter if they are focused on grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing or speaking, involve the students communicating with each other in English at all appropriate times. By adopting this method students:
Our teachers use a variety of modern teaching approaches to make sure students have the right balance of individual work, pair work and group work, in order to maximise their learning experience and build their confidence when communicating in English.
All of our classes are taught using a communicative method which places speaking and communicating as the number one goal. A huge benefit of this is that our young learners:
At SBC Twyford, by taking part in a series of dynamic tasks and projects, such as making short films, photography exhibitions, drama performances, team challenges and class competitions, students can use their English in an imaginative and productive way.
In class, by using English at every opportunity to mirror real-world situations through games and interactive group work, our students are always immersed in fun activities that they want to feel part of. In addition to this, the unique opportunity to meet and get to know British children will give your child a truly immersive experience and a great opportunity to make new friends. By the end of the course, our goal is to give your child great confidence in their English language abilities and to boost their motivation once regular English classes resume back home.
