You are fluent in English but need more time to consolidate your grammar? In this course we combine grammar revision with active speaking on an advanced level. Start the morning with a little music, then move on to vocabulary and idioms and focus on grammar as needed- a potpourri of everyday English.  

This course is designed to provide you with a good blend of vocabulary input and conversation practice. We will use a wide range of interesting topics and activities to help you improve your English. You will be encouraged to interact with language by working with texts, audio and video, and we will analyze English constructions and use them in speaking activities. Besides that, the vocabulary will be revisited regularly in order to consolidate classroom learning. At the end of most classes, there will be a feedback session to discuss grammar and pronunciation problems. Do you want to meet your teacher before registering?

This course helps you speak it with more confidence, fluency and style – by borrowing from writers who knew exactly how to move an audience. In a small, sociable group we read, discuss, debate and play with language. Not a lecture – a conversation, full of practical phrases and the kind of English that works as well at a dinner party as in the boardroom. The idea behind the course: a German intellectual movement has shaped the English-speaking world. The Humboldt brothers, Goethe and the German Romantics inspired poets such as Wordsworth and Byron in England, and later Emerson, Thoreau and the conservationist John Muir in America, and ultimately even Walt Disney. Participants explore this journey in a small, friendly group, through stories, conversations and debates, with lots of fun activities between the learners. As a result, you naturally gain greater confidence and enjoyment in speaking English, both in everyday life and at work.
