How do we teach?

Fixed focus

Every pupil always takes an active part in class. There is an extremely energetic atmosphere during classes, which translates into constant focus and interest from the students.

Not one minute of silence

There is not even a minute of silence during lessons and the only language during class is English.

Speaking correctly

Pupils learn about all aspects of the language, but first learn to speak correctly – exactly as when learning their mother tongue.

Correction

Constant correction from by the teacher.

Systematic repetition

Systematic repetition of material /each lesson a minimum of 7 times.

Rotation of lecturers

Regular rotation of lecturers – learning a variety of accents.

How do others teach?

Solving exercises in the book

You usually only speak up when you feel like it or dare to. You spend most of your time solving the exercises in the book and then reading out your answers.

Waste of time

There are long moments of silence in lessons which are a waste of time and Polish is often dominant.

Repeating mistakes

Your pronunciation is only corrected occasionally therefore you duplicate your own mistakes.

You don’t learn to speak and understand

You spend most of your time writing and reading, you don’t learn to speak and understand and think in a foreign language.

Sacrificing one’s own time

If you want to consolidate the material, you have to devote a lot of your own time at home.

One way of pronouncing

You are always taught by the same teacher, so you hear only one pronunciation, accent and speed of speech.
