EFFECTIVE ENGLISH TALKS

LET'S DEBATE!

Anything better than a lesson? A DEBATE! Or rather a "quick fire debate", a quick question and answer session that enhances your language skills. The debate formula is perfect if you want to improve fluency, vocabulary, communication effectiveness and why not ... even grammar. The mini-debate allows you to learn and practice on how to agree, disagree and express your ideas with expressions and words suitable for every occasion.

HOW IT WORKS

  • Before the lesson, students are provided with a set of "debate cards", with ad-hoc words and expressions to be used during the conversation.
  • The teacher then provides each student with the topic of discussion, related to daily or professional life, in the form of short statements.
  • Each student reads his/her statement aloud and within minutes everyone else expresses their opinions, while the teacher conveys the conversation among the students and provides feedback at the end of the lesson.

It is an effective, fast and fun way to learn English, which helps students of all levels to feel confident and comfortable when they have to express their opinion on a variety of occasions. The debates are perfect both face-to-face and with distance learning!

OUR DEBATE FORMULAS

1,5 HOURS X 4 PEOPLE

  • The whole lesson focuses on the debate, always conveyed by the teacher throughout the lesson, with a brief final feedback by the teacher with a focus on the terminology used during the debate and on the main mistakes or difficulties that the students may have faced.
  • Euro 140.00 per lesson / group*

2 HOURS X 4 PEOPLE

  • Three quarters of the lesson is dedicated to debate, always conveyed by the teacher. At the end of the debate, more space is given to the feedback of the teacher, who pays attention to each individual student regarding the main mistakes or difficulties that each of them may have encountered during the debate.
  • Euro 180.00 per lesson / group*

2 HOURS X 6 PEOPLE

  • Same development as per the 2 hours for 4 people formula.
  • Euro 240.00 per lesson / group *

*The above mentioned prices, excluding VAT, are expressed per group lesson, thus the cost per participant is lower than the total indicated above.
