English for Beginners Summer term is a course for literate learners who want to further develop and consolidate their speaking and listening skills.
With the support of tutors, learners can explore English culture and build their communication skills for everyday life in the UK.
This course aims to build on our English for Beginners foundation course by offering learners the opportunity to prepare for ESOL Entry 1, through the addition of a portfolio.
The content for the course revises, consolidates and extends the topics completed at foundation level. There is a greater focus on language analysis, listening and speaking to help learners prepare for their next step.
The portfolio student will complete the core course and their tasks will be kept separate from their core course file.
Core course materials are based on the Adult ESOL Core Curriculum programme. Learners will develop their reading, writing, listening and speaking skills through topic-led sessions including:
- Introducing and describing myself and others (family and friends)
- Talking about my hobbies, interests, skills, personal attributes and daily routines
- Talking about my home, local places, weather and seasons.
- ‘Out and About’ – English for transport, shopping, holidays and social events
- ‘My Future’ – My health and wellbeing, learning for life, jobs and the workplace
