Kings
“"Communication is at the heart of the Kings approach to teaching and learning. We recognise that knowledge about the English language is not enough. Your ability to use the language is our shared goal and passion. Lessons are designed to help you express your ideas, feelings and knowledge - whether in order to pass an exam, find your dream job or to communicate your ideas to the world. The Kings classroom combines a focus on both fluency and accuracy. We understand that you need to practice what you have learnt, whether that be a new piece of grammar or a new set of vocabulary. New language is practised in a range of creative, imaginative and stimulating ways, all of which put you and your ability to communicate right at the centre of everything. In addition to learning and using new language, the Kings classroom also supports and promotes cultural, academic and personal development. Classes discuss world events, culture and those aspects of life which are of greatest importance to all our lives. We take time to listen to each other, to question our own understandings of the world around us and to celebrate, in English, the life-changing experience of learning together."”
