Intensive Academic Year

תאור הקורס

Long-term language programmes which allow you to achieve maximum fluency whilst immersing yourself in the language and culture of another country.

This programme is right for you if:
• You are aiming to achieve fluency in English
• You want an intensive focus on all language skills with quick results
• You would like flexible learning material, excellent communication between you and your teachers and continuous learning assessment
• You would like to receive a Kaplan Academic Semester or Year certificate at the end of your course

Each week you will receive 20 lessons of General English, 8 Specific Skills lessons, and 7 sessions of Structured Study

General English classes
Your General English classes will initially focus on making sure that you are able to communicate effectively in everyday English. A wide-ranging syllabus will then develop your overall linguistic skills, helping you to read, write and speak English with confidence and clarity.

Specific Skills classes
These vary from school to school but may include:
— Current Affairs
— English for Business
— Academic English
— TOEFL/IELTS Exam Preparation
— Writing and Vocabulary
— Speaking and Pronunciation
— Idioms
— Local Culture
— Literature
— Film Studies

Structured Study
Your Structured Study sessions help you to reinforce what you have learned and improve the areas where you need most practice by using selected books, online language exercises and interactive computer programmes.

Optional Internship
If your English level is high enough, you may decide to gain job skills and practise your English in a real working environment by including an unpaid internship placement as part of your
programme. Your internship will replace some of your classes above. An example structure for your Academic Year could be 2 terms of classes as above, followed by an internship placement
in your final term. Internships may also be made available on an Academic Semester programme if you have an appropriate visa.
