THE MOST PRACTICAL AND FUN ENGLISH COURSE
As every year, the Management of the BRITISH SCHOOL GROUP is pleased to present the Saturday courses, “British Saturdays” in its centres in Alzira and Xàtiva, and this year as a novelty, also Gandia. In this course your children will be able to spend Saturday mornings in the most fun and educational way.
The course will have the same format as in previous years: 25 working Saturdays. The timetable will be from 10.00 to 13.00 and the classes will be taught entirely in English, promoting our famous “Speaking & Listening” method. The aim of the course is to encourage the enjoyment of learning English through interactive activities such as songs, games, theatre and much more. In addition, the use of a tailor-made programme and other resources from Pearson and Cambridge provide a perfect structure to the classes.
The course also offers older students the opportunity to take official Pearson exams (students can take the official Pearson exams at the Centre itself), and Cambridge exams (for the latter, enrolment is managed by the Centre), only for levels A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2, in which they can obtain an internationally recognised certificate to accredit their level of English.
We are pleased to inform you that our innovative online learning platform, aimed at the preparation of official exams, is also available this year.
Among other advantages, this platform:
- Accessible 24h / 365 days
- It is ideal for the preparation of official exams at levels A2 – B1 – B2 – C1 – C2.
- It is intuitive and easy to use.
- It has a wide variety of content, with practical “MOCKS” exams so that students can do the different parts of the exam and control the time and characteristics of each part. It also has activities separated by skills: writing, listening and speaking. The Listening & Speaking parts allow the teacher to evaluate and provide feedback to improve the student’s performance and ability. The platform also offers lessons on vocabulary, grammar, tips and downloadable material to optimise the preparation of all the content covered in the CEFR level.
- Allows access from mobile phones, computers or tablets.
- Allows visualisation of the student’s progress, graphs of activities carried out and average score in each skill, and simulation of the real score in the official exam.
