Worldwide School of English offers a great English language education at an excellent location in
Auckland city.
You can study
General English classes
at 7 levels, Beginner, Elementary, Pre-Intermediate, Intermediate,
Upper-Intermediate, Advanced and Proficiency and English for Academic Purposes (IELTS and TOEIC), FCE and CAE preparation classes as well as the Cambridge Business English Certificate (BEC) exam preparation classes and TESOL + TKT. Our minimum age is 18 years old.
You are tested and placed carefully into your correct level on your first day at school. You move up a level when you have shown competency at your level and are ready to move up.
Our classes have an average of 11 students (maximum of 15).
All General English class materials are provided free.
At Worldwide School you do not use only one textbook in class and you do not pay any extra for your General English study materials.
You receive your own folder to keep your lessons in and you must bring it to school everyday. It will provide a record of all that you have learned during your time at Worldwide School.
General English classes in the morning improve all aspects of your English. Grammar, writing and reading skills and you also do a lot of listening and speaking practice. Teachers want you to be involved, to give opinions and ask questions.
General English classes in the afternoon concentrate even more on the fluency skills introduced in the morning classes. There is a lot of pair and group work and exercises to improve listening skills used in everyday English. Every Friday afternoon we also have special conversation class, movie, or a cheap activity options.
We use material from USA, Great Britain, Australia and New Zealand. Your teachers are all qualified (with TEFL qualifications and University degrees) and experienced native-speaker teachers from many different countries.
In addition to our main General and Academic English courses we offer our PLUS Farm Experience , HELP/Au Pair, International Flight Attendant, Summer Sports, Environmental Volunteer, Working Holiday Visa Support and Internship programmes. We also offer a "COMBO Programme" combining study with travel at our partner schools in Napier, Christchurch and Queenstown.
