English for General Purposes - Beginner to Upper Intermediate

 

Academia International is a provider of English Language Intensive Courses for Overseas Students (ELICOS). Running over 5 days in the morning or afternoon, students may join the course on any Monday and may study from 2-50 weeks. Academia International has 5 levels of General English, from Beginning to Upper-Intermediate, which allows students to be placed in an appropriate-level class.

 

A communicative approach is taken in the General English program, focusing on Speaking and Listening. Writing and reading will focus on tasks that an international student living in Australia might expect to do (filling in forms, applying for a job, reading classified ads). This allows students to use the language right away in Australia.

 

All students are provided with a course book and supplementary materials will also be provided by the teacher. Academia International has a fully equipped computer learning lab, which students use to supplement their learning experience.
