In general English Language is now considered as an
essential medium of communication in the education &
business areas. This language has brought the world
together. In the modern world a good knowledge of English
offers enormous benefits. English is basically studied to
gain better employment opportunities and career advancement
particularly in English speaking countries.
There are different stages in learning English as a foreign
language. WECL English courses are designed specifically for
international students who wish to come to UK or are already
here for further studies and better career prospects.
At WECL we offer all Levels of English courses from A1 - C2.
The different levels are as follows:
A1- Can understand and use familiar everyday
expressions and very basic phrases aimed at the satisfaction
of needs of a concrete type. Can introduce him/herself and
others and can ask and answer questions about personal
details such as where he/she lives, people he/she knows and
things he/she has. Can interact in a simple way provided the
other person talks slowly and clearly and is prepared to
help.
A2 - Can understand sentences and frequently used
expressions related to areas of most immediate relevance
(e.g. very basic personal and family information, shopping,
local geography, employment). Can communicate in simple and
routine tasks requiring a simple and direct exchange of
information on familiar and routine matters. Can describe in
simple terms aspects of his/her background, immediate
environment and matters in areas of immediate need.

input on familiar matters regularly encountered in work,
school, leisure, etc. Can deal with most situations likely
to arise whilst travelling in an area where the language is
spoken. Can produce simple connected text on topics which
are familiar or of personal interest. Can describe
experiences and events, dreams, hopes & ambitions and
briefly give reasons and explanations for opinions and
plans.
B2 - Can understand the main ideas of complex text on
both concrete and abstract topics, including technical
discussions in his/her field of specialisation. Can interact
with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular
interaction with native speakers quite possible without
strain for either party. Can produce clear, detailed text on
a wide range of subjects and explain a viewpoint on a
topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of
various options.
C1 - Can understand a wide range of demanding, longer
texts, and recognise implicit meaning. Can express
him/herself fluently and spontaneously without much obvious
searching for expressions. Can use language flexibly and
effectively for social, academic and professional purposes.

heard or read. Can summarise information from different
spoken and written sources, reconstructing arguments and
accounts in a coherent presentation. Can express him/herself
spontaneously, very fluently and precisely, differentiating
finer shades of meaning even in the most complex situations.
The Syllabus for English Course:
The course is taught by qualified and native English
speaking teachers from beginners to Proficiency level. Our
English teachers will help you improve your speaking and
writing abilities and also help those who wish to prepare
for Cambridge English Examinations. We emphasize on the
following five elements of teaching English language to our
students.
Reading:
You as a student will be exposed to and shown how to deal
with many different types of reading materials from
newspapers, business letters, books and also other
literatures and magazines in order to improve your Reading
skills.
Writing:
You will be taught all the different writing styles not only
creative writing but also formal and business forms too,
allowing you therefore to write anything in English you
choose.
Speaking:
Your speaking ability will improve as you study and we at
WECL feel that this is an important part of each lesson. We
also make sure that you practice and improve your
communication skills at every given opportunity. We build
confidence in you by encouraging you to speak in class and
we also conduct group discussion sessions for all our
students in the classroom.
Listening:
Listening to comprehensions is a very important element of
the English language course. Improving your listening skills
will help you in your social and work life and will also
help you to increase your confidence to a greater extent to
move forward on your career path. That is why WECL pays
special attention to it.
Grammar:
Grammar is the building block of any language. Here at WECL,
we cover all areas of grammar at all levels. We make sure
you identify the difference and put it in practice in order
to improve your language skills.
Course Work:
Each level here has its own course book which follows the
Cambridge syllabus. A technique that has had proven results
which enables students to pass all the exam set by Cambridge
. Each Course book includes the five above mentioned
elements, helping you to strengthen your weaknesses, no
matter what they are.
Selection Procedure:
To determine your level of English, we take a test and also
interview you in the beginning itself so that you can be
allocated to a class at the right level. This helps you make
rapid progress in English and pass relevant internationally
recognized examinations. |
