English as a Foreign Language

Group language
 

Objective

English is the international language of shipping; it is the language of
business and all Coracle courses are conducted in English. Where we provide
courses leading to examination, the exams require written answers, in English.

Coracle offers you the opportunity to study English as a Foreign Language. You
can take an English course from your own home or office and interact live over
the internet with your teacher and your classmates. Our classes are held in
private chatrooms and can be audio and/or video enabled.

We understand that attending traditional English classes can be difficult, but
thanks to modern technology you don’t have to miss out. Our experienced and
enthusiastic teachers are ready to help you achieve your goals.

The convenience of online learning

You can attend classes online from your home, office, or anywhere
with a computer and internet access: you can study how, when and
where you want without giving up the benefits of live classes.

Small classes of no more than 5 students

In classes of max 5 students, each student receives a great deal of
the teacher’s time and attention. Lessons and class discussions can
then cater to the specific needs and interests of each student. Our
small classes allow you to gain the most from interaction with
classmates without compromising the focused attention of our
instructors. We will do our best to group you with students of
similar goals and abilities. Whoever your classmates may be, you can
be sure that you will learn from one another as well as from our
imaginative teachers.

Qualified, dedicated teachers

Our teachers are professional and enthusiastic; they have extensive
experience teaching students from all over the world and from all
walks of life. They have taught at universities and embassies, for
governments and companies, and in private tutorials. Each is fluent
in at least one language apart from English, and most have experience
teaching abroad.

You help design the course

We believe that because you are paying for the courses, you should
help decide what is being taught. You can choose from a variety of
classes or help design your own syllabus by telling us what you wish
to focus on during the seven week program.

Detailed individualized feedback

Each class session will be automatically transcribed for the benefit
of both you and your teacher. This will make it possible for our
teachers to not only give you valuable feedback during classes, but
also to prepare future lessons that concentrate on areas that need
strengthening. Every week you will receive personalized, detailed
written feedback, based on your teacher’s evaluation of these
transcripts.

Flexible class times that fit your personal schedule

Class schedules will be determined by your availability. Each class
will meet in chatrooms only you, your teacher, and your 4 classmates
can enter. When you register for a course, we will give you an
identification code that will allow you to enter your classroom.
During classes, you will learn through live interaction with your
classmates and a dedicated, sympathetic teacher. Your teacher will
facilitate discussions, offer guidance and monitor your language
production.

What you are registering for…

Each EFL course is designed individually to meet your needs. After
you have completed the registration form and answered our
questionnaire, you will be grouped with several other students who
share your interests and abilities. Classes will never be larger than
5 students. Your teacher will then create a unique course to serve
you and your classmates. The class schedule will be determined by
your availability.

Once the course has been designed and the class time has been set,
you will receive via e-mail instructions for getting to your online
classroom. During class, your teacher will lead discussions, offer
guidance, monitor your language production, and give focused
assignments. There will also be several homework assignments to be
done either individually or as a group. Your instructor will give you
regular progress reports. Upon successful completion of the course,
you will receive a final evaluation and a Diploma certificate.
