Why choose English immersion in England?
Listen, engage and articulate while having fun !
Opting for English immersion in England, will enable you be continually exposed to the target language. This is the most natural way. The process should be approached the same way as when a child learns a language for the first time. When a child naturally develops language, they do not study vocabulary or memorise grammar books. They learn as a consequence of listening, absorbing and speaking. During an immersion program, the process is much the same and with equally successful results.
Confidence building.
When learning in an immersion environment you have no choice. You either remain isolated or you communicate. Unlike a classroom situation, where you do vocabulary, grammar,comprehension exercises and a few conversational exchanges, immersion is the real test. When you are forced to immerse yourself, your confidence will increase and your inhibitions will fade away. You will not be conscious of making grammatical mistakes and will be able to continue speaking confidently. Your flow of conversation will improve each day and you will open yourself up to genuine conversation practice.
Idioms and natural language
When learning a language it is important to learn authentic expressions, idioms and even slang. When on an English immersion program in England you will be exposed to all kinds of conversation. These will come from host family members, speaking to people when out in the community and TV programs. Understanding idioms, humour and slang is important, as these factors are an integral part of the language. You will learn a great deal more about intonation , pronunciation and body language. These would not be learnt in a regular classroom situation. These aspects of the language will rarely be learnt from a textbook.
Culture and conversation
This program for those who wish to concentrate predominantly on speaking English rather than on the mechanics of the language. Combined with accompanied excursions , you will have ample opportunity to practice your spoken English. There will also be the opportunity to learn about British culture. There are no formal lessons on this program. Often teachers will have a family. This will give you ample opportunity for conversation with different people throughout your stay.
