ADD-ON EVERYDAY ENGLISH

Who is this course for?

This course is for you if you need to communicate now. It is a fast track to communicating in everyday situations, such as booking appointments over the phone, making returns in a shop, describing the haircut you want to a hairdresser or barber, or dealing with problems in your hotel or rented flat. You will learn and practise common expressions used in these situations, so you can feel prepared and confident next time you need to solve a problem!

You can book this class as a standalone course or as an add-on to our General English classes. 

  • 1.00-2.00 pm x 5 days a week (Monday to Friday)

Our Approach

In our classes we use the Communicative Approach, which most experts think is the best way to teach English. The teacher will present new language in natural contexts, so you will get a clear idea of when to use it in real life. You will practise the language you learn so you gain more confidence, and then use it in speaking activities with your classmates. The teacher will give you feedback to help you improve.

Course Materials:

On this course we don’t have a fixed coursebook but we will use a range of materials from Pearson, Macmillan, Oxford University Press and National Geographic. Our teachers supplement them with authentic materials depending on the lesson topic.

What will you achieve?

This course is very practical. It will prepare you to communicate confidently in everyday situations. You will learn and practise common expressions used in these situations. You will improve your understanding of what other people may say to you, and you will learn different ways to respond.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for Lucas from Speak Up London. He is someone who truly makes studying at the school comfortable, well-organised, and genuinely enjoyable. Lucas is always attentive, ready to help with any questions, and quick to find solutions in both academic and organisational matters. He creates a sense of confidence and a warm, friendly atmosphere, even when you are far away from home. Thanks to his professionalism, kindness, and genuine support, the school becomes a place you are happy to come to every day. Lucas, thank you sincerely for your care, support, and humanity.

Una fantastica esperienza che non dimenticherò mai. Sono stata a Londra per migliorare il mio inglese ma ho trovato una famiglia composta da amici provenienti da tutto il mondo e lo devo alla scuola e alla bravura degli insegnanti ma ancora di più ai social programme e le gite fuori porta che mi hanno dato la possibilità non solo di visitare posti nuovi come Canterbury, Cambridge e Brighton ma anche parlale e conoscere nuove persone. Da qui il mio inglese è migliorato notevolmente! Grazie mille Speak Up London a presto! ☺️
