Course overview
Course description
In this six-week ESOL course, (English for Speakers of Other Languages) learners will practice their reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills through the topics of neighbours, London and other cities, food and cooking and drink. Areas of grammar will be there was/ there were; present continuous; present simple vs present continuous; an/an & some/any; how much/how many; and quantifiers: a lot, not much. Vocabulary will centre around prepositions of place, verb phrases, places in a city, giving and receiving directions, food – countable & uncountable nouns and drinks. Students will engage in pair work, games, written and verbal exercises. There will also be a written assignment in which learners will read and then write a postcard using a given example as scaffolding. There will be a summative assessment at the end to help learners gauge their own progress and develop a degree of autonomy in their learning. It is hoped that learners will progress to the next course in the series upon successful completion.
