LAL:UnforgettableYou might not know it yet, but LAL will be with you forever. The people, the places and the English language you discover through LAL will shape the way you interact with your world. The benefits of your language experience with LAL will endure, because real-life learning resonates long after you have finished your course. The experience goes way beyond the classroom: belonging to the LAL community really means getting out and exploring the places you always heard about, from a completely new angle. Being able to share moments with people who, like you, are building their own future, finding their unique take on each LAL destination, and living abroad as part of an international community - this is LAL.

LAL: Unforgettable

Unforgettable People• We are people who believe in a

better world too. You’ll never feel alone.

• Being far away from home, we’ll create the opportunities for you to interact with people that make you feel like you belong.

While we are proud of everything that our lessons offer, what happens outside of the classroom is as important to your learning experience as what you learn from books. Being surrounded by the LAL community, exploring the unique locations we are present in and finding your own take on what this combination has to offer is what we believe will impact your English skills the most.

English on the GoLearn English in real life situations with people that matter to you, in circumstances that only real life can bring! Our English on the Go lessons take place once a month, where teachers will take you for lessons outside of the classroom, giving you a whole new understanding of what learning English can be.

We believe that life is meant to be lived without subtitles.That whatever matters to one or to many people, whatever passion exists, it is better shared.

Speak to the World

8

The big part is interacting with other people in English. It's one language that is going to bond you all, with the staff, the friends you will make and actually spending time practising your English, while you are having fun, you don't even know you are learning English in a new way!

Nowadays everyone wants to speak clearly in English. If you need English for work, travel or study, LAL’s experienced teachers can help you practise the language for everyday situations. Our classrooms are a place to talk about yourselves and your lives while improving your English with new friends.

LAL likes you to check on your progress; there’s daily feedback from your teachers, weekly written or aural tests as well as written and spoken end of level exams. Our materials align with levels in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).

Our teachers are familiar with how you need to learn English, including using technology and real-life situations. Learning English means speaking, listening, reading and writing; you will use skills important to you and improve your confidence. You can also practise after lessons by accessing LAL’s online learning platform.

We like our students to be involved in their learning, so as well as planning lessons and progress checks for you, we ask you about the language you want to learn. Discussing and choosing the week's’ work with your teacher and class creates a course perfect for your language needs.

We love it when our students talk to us in English outside the classroom, whatever their level*. This builds confidence and lets you use language in lots of real situations. Because of this, we think you should try to speak English as much as you can, even to people from your own country!

Our methodology

11

At LAL we believe in comfortable relationships; we want you to make new friends. We put our students first so you can relax and speak English in or out of school. Friendly staff work together to make sure you enjoy learning a language that is an important part of life.

11

Our learning pledgeYears of experience in teaching, course planning and getting feedback from students mean that we know how you learn English. We assess you to start you in the level best suited to you. You can then progress quickly and work towards reaching your personal goals.

Attendance, participation, practice: we make sure you learn how to progress while achieving and surpassing the goals that you arrive with.
