Exeter

At STAR Exeter, teaching is based on communicative principles. Teachers take account of students’ backgrounds, needs, learning styles, strengths and weaknesses. A variety of approaches are employed, ranging from more formal structured activities to freer task-based exercises. A big proportion of class time is devoted to genuine communication. Students are valued for the knowledge and experience they bring, and are encouraged to share this with each other, supported by the teacher. We find this is the key to building students’ confidence in communicating in English. Morning classes follow a recognised course book of the appropriate level. Supplementary materials are taken from a wide variety of sources, including authentic listening texts, newspapers and videos, so that each student’s interests and needs are catered for. Skills work is also an important part of the curriculum, giving students a balance between learning grammar and vocabulary, and practising the skills of listening, speaking (including pronunciation), reading and writing. Independent learning is encouraged, and students are given advice on how to continue their learning at home, when they are out and about in Exeter, and when they return to their own country. Homework is set regularly, checked by the teacher and remedial work is given if necessary. Each student has an Individual Learning Plan. Through weekly tutorials, the student is guided in the areas he/she needs to focus on, and the teacher can adjust the syllabus according to individual interests and requirements. Afternoon Academic Skills classes The afternoon lessons complement the morning General English course by providing an opportunity for students to activate their language, with output, rather than input, being emphasized. The syllabus is therefore topic-based, focussing on real-life communication and transactional English. Students have a direct input in the choice of topics for the afternoon lessons. We have a wide variety of specialised material at all levels, which teachers use to build lessons around. Vocabulary exercises, reading texts, and listenings are used as springboards for further work. Errors are corrected as students speak, and teachers often highlight areas of difficulty, in order for more in-depth practice. Afternoon classes are also ideal for focussing on pronunciation. IELTS Exam Preparation classes Students work to gain competence in all four study skills (Speaking, Listening, Reading, Writing) to obtain the result/score they need. Students develop strategies to carry out IELTS tasks in class and be prepared for the exam conditions in the near future. Lessons ensure that students have the necessary language to successfully deal with the exam components, and practice strategies needed to cope with the exam questions: integrated grammar, vocabulary, spelling and pronunciation. Teachers build students’ confidence in their abilities and sustain their motivation, and give students feedback on their progress by using real IELTS materials. A variety of IELTS-specific resources are used to maximise your achievement.

Accelerated Learning

Aylesbury

Colin Rose has developed a strong belief that students may differ in their basic academic ability, but EVERY student can be taught how to be a better learner. And so improve their motivation and performance. Building on work on study skills and the development of intelligence at institutions such as Harvard, UCLA, and Oxford universities, he identified a number of learning techniques and strategies that had a proven effect on results. Why Accelerated Learning? More has been discovered about how the human brain works in the last 25 years than in all history to date. Methods developed by Colin Rose with Accelerated Learning are based on that research. We each have a preferred learning style — a way of learning that suits us best. If you know and use techniques that match your preferred way of learning, you learn more naturally. Because it is more natural for you, it becomes easier. And because it is easier, it is quicker. Hence the name – Accelerated Learning.

Did you know that ordinarily 90% of what people learn in isolated training is likely to be forgotten within a few days? So whether you spend £100 or £1m a year in training your staff, you are in danger of losing a huge proportion of your investment unless you also arrange the necessary support to make the training stick. H2 Training Consultancy enables ambitious organisations already committed to staff training and development to gain maximum value from their investment. Our training expertise, together with our understanding of the key principles for making learning stick, means we are able to provide you with all of the essential elements for enabling classroom-based learning to be applied back in the workplace.

They are also carefully designed to increase self-awareness and improve understanding of others, thereby creating a valuable lasting legacy self-motivation, personal accountability and ongoing self-improvement. We are decidedly not in the temporary ‘sticking plaster’ business - our expertise is in delivering ‘how to’ people skills development that really sticks!

Qurious Education

Unsure about how to write an Economics personal statement? We hope to point out what to include in an Economics personal statement in this article...Learning should be enjoyable due to the natural curiosity we have as humans. Sadly, students often lose it somewhere along the way. Sometimes its because we can’t see how our lives can relate to what we’re learning, and at other times it comes down to the immense pressure that students face in meeting expectations. In this day and age of rapid technological change, to not learn is equivalent to being extinct. Our mission at Qurious Education is to provoke curiosity in students toward their studies – to help them learn better through motivation, whilst coping with grades and expectations. We do this in a variety of ways: from providing practical but interesting resources on our site, to offering private tuition and admissions advice to fund our mission. Streaming free live classes is our newest initiative, where we aim to promote learning in an environment outside of the traditional classroom. We are based in London, and hope to meet you in-person or online!
