The English Intermediate Conversation Course is designed for learners to focus specifically on developing their speaking skills. Students are encouraged to speak as much as possible through fun activities such as debates, presentations, role plays, and discussing a novel together (optional). A variety of materials are used to reinforce key grammatical structures, broaden students’ vocabulary, and provide interesting topics for discussion so that students can put these skills into practice.
The range of topics covered in the lessons is broad and varies each term. Students can also contribute and suggest ideas.
This course is divided into Blocks A, B, and C. It is not necessary, however, to complete the blocks in A-B-C order as all blocks are taught at an Intermediate (B1) level.
Length 24 hours
Format Once a week (regular); a semi-intensive option can be created by combining this course with our Intermediate General and/or Practical English Course.
