Description : Summer holiday english in Embassy Summer School in Los Angeles, Northridge

Location: California State University, Northridge Campus, Los Angeles

The Embassy Summer programs are designed to accelerate the learning of English in a comfortable language environment. Training can be provided to children with minimal knowledge and adolescents with a more advanced level and extensive vocabulary. Introductory testing will accurately determine the stock of knowledge and send the child to the appropriate group from 1 (Beginner) to 5 (Advanced).

The number of students in each training group does not exceed 15 people, therefore children can count on the constant attention of the teacher and personal consultations on emerging issues.

The pedagogical staff of the school passed a special qualification of English teachers for foreigners, which allows using more advanced teaching methods. The administration of the school is administered by the Director of Studies, who has the necessary experience to manage the teaching process at Embassy Summer.

Conditionally the training on the courses can be divided into the classroom and extracurricular (informal). On the day, schoolchildren attend no more than 4 classes, and the weekly load is 15 academic hours. Upon admission to the courses, Embassy Summer provides the children with the necessary educational literature, manuals and supporting materials.

The use of modern technology in the lessons allows you to learn new vocabulary with greater impact. Schoolchildren can use computers, watch educational videos.

On the national holidays, there is no training in the institution, and the programs traditionally begin on Monday.

At the first class at Embassy Summer, the children are tested to determine their English level. The students are tested in writing and confirm the vocabulary, and the oral interview shows the ability to understand spoken language and briefly talk about themselves.

Culture Club

An important part of the learning process is the familiarity with local culture and historical traditions. The school organized an informal cultural club for this purpose, in which children can talk about interesting places and spend time in entertaining discussions. Most often the topics of debates are the places of future trips. All communication at school takes place in English, which speeds up the acquisition of spoken language and increases lexical baggage.

Trinity Exam

A high level of study at Embassy Summer allows you to pass the final exam from Trinity College (Dublin) to confirm the success of the courses. In the course of a personal interview with the examiner, the student receives an assessment of 1 to 12 points according to CEFR standards. This system is used in the European Union to assess knowledge and skills in all foreign languages. The interview allows you to see the skills of understanding conversational speech and the ability to communicate with the interlocutor. As a result, the student can be assessed at levels ranging from elementary to free domain.

CEFR is not required for all students. Those who want to go through this point to this option when registering and booking a site on the site.

To study at Embassy Summer, you must reserve a place in advance. The registration will be closed on 30 May.
