Overview

Communication class trains listening and speaking for teens and adults. It is not Cambridge or IELTS paper prep. Placement first — this site does not promise fluency in N months.

Who is this for

  • Teens or adults who need everyday spoken English
  • Want listening and speaking, not an exam paper
  • Placed after a check, not dropped into a speaking class unprepared

Learning outcomes

  • Handle nearby situations: greetings, asking the way, class, light work talk
  • Follow short dialogues and ask for clarification
  • Speak with more ease in a small group — no IELTS band attached

Frequently asked questions

Is this IELTS Speaking prep?

No. Communication class is everyday situations, not the three IELTS speaking parts.

Can a complete beginner join?

After placement. If the base is too low, we class an age-group or foundation course first.
