Core English

Teachers are starting the week with some challenging learning objectives:

Calvin’s C1 class analyse and then write news articles also focusing on the more advanced language of deduction and probability.

Eugenie from France – getting ready to learn more

Mat’s B1 class focus on academic English. Specifically they use the language of cause and effect to write a report about recycling.

Active Learning

They also develop their Critical Thinking skills and take ownership of their own learning by asking “thoughtful questions” themselves.

Monday night means we’re going out

We love Monday nights out. It’s the perfect time for new students to get to know each other in a relaxed setting. Lucia, Taissa and Priscilla from different parts of Brazil “show us how it’s done”.

We’re off-campus bowling

Happy birthday Michal

Finally, the day ends with all the boys singing happy birthday to Michal. How many people experience this? New friends from 16 countries “singing happy birthday to you”.

Happy Birthday B2 student Michal from Radom, Poland!
Goodnight everyone!

After such a busy day, everyone is going to “sleep like a log”.

Good night everyone!
