General English
LSC offers General English courses designed for both students who require additional English language training to meet minimum entry requirements for British degree programmes or students who wish to further improve their English language.
About the course
The General English Language course at LSCM is primarily designed for students who wish to develop their 'practical' English language for typical every-day social, personal, and work-related communication and interaction. The course specifically:
- Focuses on developing the four fundamental aspects of communication: speaking, listening, reading and writing. The course uses a range of real-life situations to develop these skills.
- Equips students with 'functional' and 'practical' English language for use in everyday situations, for example when travelling, shopping, studying and at work.
- Develops learners' confidence in using English, through the use of role play in small groups of students.
- Is tailored to individual students' level and capacity for spoken English. The tutors are able to support learners with little or no English language through to those with some basic grasp of English.
- Focusses on learners' developing fluency and accuracy in spoken and written English.
- Is delivered by highly experienced, supportive language experts.
Students achieving the General English Language certificate of attendance could* progress onto the Academic English programme.
