About course

The online English for Higher Learners lunchtime course will offer challenging and inspiring topics that will take you out of your comfort zone and support your development in the English language. Topics may include global issues, social issues, technological advances, scientific discoveries, arts and culture, international relations and many more. Such sophisticated topics allow you to apply and improve your language skills while developing your critical thinking and analytical abilities. You will be able to be yourself in English, expressing yourself naturally and with full control over both content and form.

In addition to new topics, the course also focuses on improving language structures and grammar. We will cover the subtle nuances of the language and work on precise expression and correct pronunciation. At the same time, your vocabulary will be expanded to include technical terms, idioms, slang and informal expressions, making your English richer and more authentic. The course will guide you to make your language grammatically correct, stylistically varied and very close to a "native-like" level.

All this in a small group of no more than 8 people in an effective online learning experience.

Testimonials

For me, you are the best language school in Slovakia. I would actually prefer face to face classes, but then I would not have the opportunity to have sessions with Sam, who is a fantastic teacher. Think about having branches in other parts of Slovakia too. For example in Myjava or Senica districts, there is no language school of your quality, and adults as well as pupils at primary and secondary schools would need your services along their path of education.
