Students will work on improving their English in all four major skill groups: reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Classes will move quickly through the course book, Inside Out Advanced. As students are training to be teachers, they will be expected to take an active role in their own learning, with an eye toward understanding how to share information with their peers, and later their own students.
