How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?
This course is made up of:
ONE INDEPENDENT STUDY UNIT to be completed by the Thursday of the week starting on 21 July (for LBS08), and on 8 September (for LS202):
The independent study unit requires you to complete online activities at your own pace and allows you to receive feedback and guidance from the tutor. The tutor will review your work and provide some feedback before the following (online) lessons and will use your work to plan the following lessons more efficiently.
The independent study unit is therefore as important as the online classes. Please note that you will not receive a Zoom link for this unit.
THREE ONLINE LESSONS:
For LBS08: on Monday 28, Wednesday 30 and Thursday 31 July 2025.
For LS202: on Monday 15, Wednesday 17 and Thursday 18 September 2025.
These lessons will allow you to revise material/areas of difficulty that the tutor will have identified based on the work you completed in the independent study unit. You will have opportunities to ask questions, clarify doubts and request advice about further study.
Our courses are characterised by spoken interaction and communication. Typical activities include pair work, group work, role plays and games. A range of resources will be used to support your learning including presentations, hand-outs, and audio-visual material.
Homework is highly recommended to consolidate learning.
Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?
The course is based on the tutor’s own resources.
When I've finished, what course can I do next?
