Your Lessons On a St Juniors Junior Summer course, students will receive 20 English lessons a week. The lessons are designed to focus on building their communication skills and confidence in using English. Lessons will also include preparation for excursions and activities, to help them continue their learning outside of the classroom. TEACHERS Our friendly and professional teachers use communicative methods in a tightknit learning environment to help students learn quickly. All our teachers are qualified English language teachers in order to ensure a high-quality level of teaching. The course focuses on all four skills but mainly speaking. Our teachers will help students leave our course feeling more confident, able to speak to an audience and with a wider range of vocabulary and functional language.

THEME OF THE WEEK Lessons and the social programme are based around a theme of the week. This theme allows students to learn useful language and skills, which they can then use in their end of week project. Students present their projects at the end of each week, which can be anything ranging from a presentation, a film, a town they have designed and much more. The projects allow them to work with their fellow students, from a whole range of nationalities, and practice a variety of skills. Example themes include Food, Media and Fame, and the Environment.

WORKBOOKS During their stay, students create a workbook that stands as a portfolio of their work to take home. It includes aims of the week, their targets reached, work based on their excursions and records of language learned.

REPORTS At the end of their stay, students make graduation hats and enjoy a small personalised graduation celebration. They receive a certificate showing their level and length of stay, plus a full report written by their teacher.
