General English I and II

The program has been carefully designed to meet the needs of a wide spectrum of language users and at different language skill levels. This allows the trainee to either enter his program at beginner level for General English I, engaging with predominantly general English structures while being able to undertake 3 twelve-week modules aimed at general language practices and the everyday environment, or enter General English II directly (on establishing his language competency).

Design of the program has also considered essential language in functional situations with the aim of communicative language acquisition.

The trainee will also receive a grounding in study skills to enable him to apply learning strategies that will bring him success in attaining his learning outcomes.

 

Educational/vocational objectives

The expected learning outcomes are that, upon completing all level modules, the learner will be able to:

• Apply English speaking and listening skills to perform interactions in an English language context and solve tasks and problems of the types commonly encountered in a trainee’s professional life.

• Demonstrate an ability to communicate effectively and function effectively with members of multi-disciplinary teams and with other workers in a technical setting, including those from different backgrounds.
• Handle himself in English in a variety of functional contexts from understanding written texts, receiving instructions, giving instructions, to understanding basic conversational English and vocabulary of a general nature encountered in common situations.
• Apply English reading and writing skills to perform common tasks.
• Use critical thinking skills to manage questions and answers.
