This course is for you if you have already taken the first half of our elementary level, an elementary course at another language school, or if you have previously spoken a little English and would like a brush up. It focuses on the four skills you need when you are learning a new language: speaking, listening, reading and writing so you will experience well-balanced progress. On this evening course, you will become more fluent when speaking to new people.

This could be when having conversations about:

• Sports and fitness


• Holidays


• Food and drink


• Film

You will also learn a lot of new words to do with, for example, a healthy lifestyle, transport, the weather, nature and technology. You will also learn how to pronounce the new words correctly.

The primary focus is that you become better at speaking English, but you will also be given short written assignments for homework, for example, writing a review. We will also study some elementary grammar in each lesson to give you a framework on which to build the language.

We will study the second half (chapters 7 to 12) of the book, Navigate.

On the course, you will typically meet students who need to improve their English because they have recently got a new job, or students who need to improve their English quickly so they can speak more fluently with family, friends and colleagues.

Teaching material
Navigate Elementary, Student's book, 2016 (Oxford University Press), ISBN 9780194566360. We will study selected pages. You can buy the book before the start of the course or after the first course day. You can either buy the book online at academicbooks.dk or at their shop. The book includes access to an online skills programme for self-study outside the classroom. In addition, the book can be projected on the whiteboard so you and the other students will typically follow the teaching there as well as looking in your own book.
