THE ENGLISH COURSE
We offer two, three and four-week residential English Language teaching courses to children aged 10-17 years.
Our English course is designed to:
- challenge students
- Improve their language skills
- increase their confidence using English
- provide multicultural learning with students from across the globe
Stonyhurst offers the perfect environment for contextual language learning as students are immersed in the rich history of the school with support from specialist teachers.
Our range of teaching methods includes group work, role-play, games, surveys, presentations, quizzes, interviews, talks and workshops, as well as fun off-site excursions.
At the end of the course, each student receives a report and a certificate at an awards ceremony. The awards ceremony does not only reward academic achievements, but also sporting success.
HOW WE CREATE OUR TEACHING GROUPS
Each course is student focused where teaching is adapted to each child’s needs using:
- Tailored teaching levels from elementary to advanced classes.
- Online assessment upon arrival and progress test at the end of each course to monitor student engagement.
- A certificate and bespoke report issued to each student.
