Detailed Description
A course for those who have recently completed an Elementary or Stage 2 class and feel confident enough to speak at a basic level. At least two years of part-time study will have been completed at this stage. The emphasis is on speaking and understanding, but new grammatical structures will be learned and reading and writing skills will be developed. A course book is sometimes used to allow you to work on your own and to form a framework for your learning.
The Intermediate class aims to build on the knowledge of basic language structures and functions allowing you to express yourself more freely in everyday situations. You will be encouraged to work out your own strategy for learning and, within the framework of the syllabus, develop language structures and functions for your own perceived needs and interests. The syllabus contains the following topics and language structures in addition to the revision and consolidation of those in the earlier courses:
You will be given an insight into the history and culture of the country within the framework of your language studies. You will be given the opportunity to pursue your own personal research into a topic of cultural interest which contains some analysis or debate.
