Our Teaching Style

A Fresh Approach

At the Lewis School, we aim for a high quality of teaching. We know most of you have studied English before coming here and we want to give you a different experience of learning - one that is useful, enjoyable and effective - one that feels ’fresh’.

 

 

 

 

Our Teaching Style Is...
Communicative
We focus mainly on speaking and listening in our General and Intensive classes. This is to help you develop the knowledge and skills to communicate in a real English-speaking environment.
Structured
We have our own syllabus, which is designed to help you grow in confidence. Topics, grammar points and functional language vary week by week and build on your previous knowledge.
Creative
We use teaching materials from a wide range of sources, including many authentic materials, and adapt our lessons to meet individual and class needs. We do not use a course book in General English as we feel this is too limiting.
Comfortable
We believe that a friendly and supportive environment is necessary for learning to take place.
Flexible
You can change the level of your class when you and your teachers feel you are ready. We also ask for weekly feedback to make sure you are happy with your lessons.
