Understand and learn to use idioms within a specific context. Apply them when you speak and in your exams. (LESSON MATERIALS PROVIDED)
Description
Have you ever asked yourself "Why do they say that ?"
Idioms can sound interesting yet complex to understand. However, your ability to use idioms accurately show that you have levelled up your English.
This class focuses on learning idioms in context meaning that we will understand how various idioms can be applied in a specific real-life situation. Therefore, rather than simply memorizing idioms to only forget them later, you will now remember them better!
Once you have mastered idioms well, you can start applying them in daily speech, when you write your journals and essays, and even to raise band scores in your tests as they flow naturally in speech.
The curriculum is carefully developed applying conversations from different contexts such as casual talk, workplace discussions, and educational settings.
