English Is Fun Course Outline

Introduction

In today’s corporate environment, speaking in English is absolutely necessary and unavoidable. Unfortunately, many avoid speaking in English because they lack confidence and are trapped in a negative reinforcing cycle. This adversely impacts corporate image and customer satisfaction. 

Course Objective

The objective of this programme is to break the negative reinforcing cycle and start a positive reinforcing cycle by encouraging participants to speak in English regardless of grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary mistakes. At the end of the programme, they will be able to speak and write in English with more confidence and style.

Course Methodology

This programme employs adult learning techniques which include active learning strategies to facilitate understanding and retention. Participants will spend 80% of the time in individual or group activities which allow them to learn, develop and practise English language skills. The trainer will draw from the participants’ working experience to simulate actual business scenarios. A pre-test and a post-test (on grammar) are administered to gauge the participants’ retention. A simple workbook will be used to facilitate the programme.
