Teacher and teaching methods

The course involves the communicative method, which means that, the main emphasis is put on speaking skills. 

The main technique in class is group work and dialogues in pairs. We often use real-life materials such as leaflets, TV shows, dialogues. The role of a teacher is crucial as it’s the teacher who creates real-life environment in class. All lessons (also for beginners) are taught only in Romanian. We usually work in international groups in which Romanianis the only ‘common’ language’. The results of the communicative method can be seen very quickly and this is an additional motivation for students. 

Even though we concentrate on speaking mainly, it doesn’t mean that we neglect other language skills – listening, grammatical correctness, reading and writing. All language skills are an integral part of each course as they influence the efficiency and ease of communication. 

We use the textbooks that we have tested and that are liked by our students. What’s more, our teachers add their own interesting materials to the textbook material.
