Improve your English or start forgetting it

Everyone knows that the lack of language practice leads to a loss of knowledge. Our principle is to stimulate conversation skills on excursions, through communicating with guides, teachers, on debates and conversations in a camp with peers.

What are the school principles? 

• Absolute immersion in English throughout the day in class, training and in free communication with staff and peers.
• Individual approach to each student. All children have their own personality, and the school staff tries to coordinate the child's needs and the style of teaching as it gives better results.
• Separation into age groups. It is well known that the perception of educational information in children under 12 and older is significantly different. Therefore, we distribute students according to age groups, and the presentation of the material corresponds to age characteristics.
• Fluent conversational English. Our goal is to teach your child to communicate freely with students, teachers, coaches, in real life. The starting point is lessons in the classrooms that inspire the child to become immersed into communication. In schools, children from all over the world study, and your child will absorb elements of most of the world's cultures, learn about life in other countries. United by a common love for football, children are in a continuous process of useful communication. We are reviewing our training courses annually, keeping an eye on their relevance and richness.
• Training based on real situations. The cross-cutting theme of the course is the general love of students for football and interest in Manchester club in particular. In our program - a fascinating and useful material based on real life situations is used.
• Examples of Manchester United. Obviously, the first team of Manchester United is the best example for students. The first team consists of 15 players from different countries, so studying English became a top priority for many members. Understand coach's instructions during the game and training sessions, to act as a single cohesive team is really important. Therefore, all classes are conducted in English.
• Orientation to a specific result. Teachers set a goal to obtain a certain result in each lesson. Level of achievement is defined for each class. This level is constantly monitored, analyzed and compared to others during the school year.

The school takes into account uniqueness of each student. This approach is used by all school teachers. At the end of the course, each child receives recommendations, and after the completion of the camp shift - his own report on the work done.
