Language course English in Brisbane

The school has so-called UFO English courses, during which you will learn English at your own pace. UFO stands for USE, FOCUS, and OPTION. These are the three components of the daily timetable. You will study USE every day in the morning, the FOCUS macro-skill changes daily, and you will then have an OPTION class in the afternoon.

The course is designed to provide different classes for each of your skills (grammar, writing, reading, listening & speaking), always at your level. On the first day, you will take a short language test (listening, reading, writing, speaking and for grammar), after which you'll be placed in the correct class. In addition, you will choose an OPTION class and LANGUAGE WORKSHOPS for the afternoons. The list of Options includes: Grammar, Vocabulary, Conversation, English for Business & Administration and more.
The list of Workshops includes: English for Work in Australia, Aussie English, Exams techniques & tips, Extension English and more.

Therefore, depending on your skills, you could potentially have six different classes and six different teachers every week.
Every Monday, you will have an individual interview with your USE teacher to review your progress. If you develop your skills quickly, you can move through the levels at your own pace, optimising your learning progress.
