Why are these courses free?

These groups are part of from a practice module for teachers: Trainee teachers need to teach real lessons, with real students, to develop their skills to international standards. You benefit from well-planned lessons, and they get authentic practice.

What does it mean specifically for you:

  • you will receive lessons taught by  more teachers in training (different styles, same goal)
  • un qualified tutor supervises the process and provides support to teachers
  • The lessons are interactive: practice speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation.

What do you gain (beyond "free")

In these groups, you will work hard and make visible progress, especially in fluency and confidence:

  • greater confidence in speaking (fewer blockages)
  • grammar and vocabulary in useful, real-life contexts
  • better oral comprehension (you get used to different teaching styles)
  • constant practice in a small group, with lots of interaction

At IH, it's "More than Language" – not just lessons, but a context in which you grow in trust and communication.
