The course English for the Future is built around grammar and vocabulary modules designed to help students revise and extend their proficiency in general English, and skills training. There are three written assignments (essay writing, letter writing and reviewing) and presentation training.
There is also the opportunity for students to extend their knowledge of academic vocabulary and to improve their spoken fluency. English for the Future offers an extensive resource of practice activities covering a wide range of language, skills and usage tasks. These are done either in or out of class, in consultation with the teacher. With its wide range of subjects and activities, the course aims to be adaptive to the individual needs of students.
