  Learning English with Bayswater
  The philosophy is to educate, encourage and help students enjoy the course. It is often a case of helping students to ‘come out of their shell’, increase their confidence in using English and provide an opportunity to use it in meaningful situations, both inside the classroom and out in the real world.
  
  Academic Overview
  The main aim is to facilitate students’ linguistic development, inspire confidence and increase their fluency in spoken English. This can be achieved by a combination of:
  
• theme-based curriculum.
  
• communicative activities.
  
• vocabulary building.
  
• pronunciation practice.
  
• language games.
  
• role-plays.
  
• developing learning skills.
  
• CLIL lessons.
  
• friendly atmosphere.
  
  Academic Programme
  On a standard Bayswater Summer course, they offer 15 hours of tuition a week. The timetable is usually organised on a zig-zag basis. This means that students will have lessons in the morning and their social programmes in the afternoon and evening. This is then reversed on a weekly basis. Consequently, students attend morning and afternoon lessons on alternate weeks* which allows the students to get the most out of their time with the school.
  
  The school operates a system of swapping teachers, whereby students have the main class teacher for the first two sessions and then a second teacher for the last session. This helps to expose students to a wider variety of accents and teaching styles, but it also breaks up the routine and teachers have an opportunity to build on each other’s strengths. The first two sessions are grammar and language-based, while the last one focuses on CLIL (Contents and Language Integrated Learning), during which students use English to learn about other subjects.
  
  Activity Programme
  The activity programme Is designed to be exciting and engaging while ensuring students still have the opportunity to continue their language learning outside the classroom.
  
  The excursions take you to the most important sites and each camp has at least one full-day excursion per week and one attraction entrance.
