* Course structure:
Students are offered two-hour lessons once a week. Tutors cover the whole syllabus and students are prepared for both oral and written papers. Students are given past papers weekly which are explained in class and given as homework. Tutors highlight and explain difficult vocabulary, and questions about the comprehension text. Further more an essay is assigned every week as homework. A listening comprehension test is given every lesson and a picture interpretation or role play is done on alternate weeks. Students are instructed in grammar covering topics such as verb tenses, gerunds, nouns, adjectives, etc. Students are also given various sample introductions and conclusions to serve as a model for essays. Emphasis is also made on reading and to further enhance this, students are provided with lists of expressions, idioms and vocabulary that can be used in essays. Students are prepared in small groups to ensure that individual attention is given.
