What is the best method to learn English?
The Wall Street English Method consists in reproducing the same learning techniques used for a mother tongue. It is a matter of listening carefully, before repeating and practicing. Learning the sounds comes first, then the grammar. This method has proven to be very successful, with 97% of positive results.
The courses are given in four different ways:
- Preparation for your English course: before your encounter with a teacher, you must follow online lessons and exercises through different supports (online videos, texts, newspaper articles, audio files...). These materials allow you to prepare each lesson, to improve your pronunciation, to enrich your vocabulary, to familiarise yourself with British and American accents, words and expressions, as well as with grammar rules.
- Evaluation exercises: each online lesson ends with a series of exercises which will be corrected by your teacher before your "encounter".
- General courses: these are held in small groups of 2 to 5 students maximum. The teacher encourages everyone to speak and corrects your accent.
- Workshops: these are complementary courses on specific topics or themes (current affairs, grammar, business English, etc.).
