English as a Foreign Language

About the BABSSCo teachers

• Students are taught by qualified EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teachers. Many of them have been teaching for us for several years and are experienced in teaching young learners. Our teachers are friendly, fun and enthusiastic and all are cleared through a police check.

A stimulating way to learn English

The focus of BABSSCo English lessons is on improving speaking and listening skills and providing students with the language they need to get the most out of the activities and excursions on the course.

Students are taught through a variety of methods:

• 15-20+ hours teaching time (excluding breaks) depending on the centre
• The maximum class size is 16 and average class size is 12

Classroom lessons

Students will improve their ability to communicate in English through a range of interesting and exciting activities. Teachers use textbooks or other teaching resources and a range of language material from our extensive BABSSCo resources, as well as the internet, television, DVD and music.

Pronunciation Practice

The BABSSCo teachers use games and songs to help students work towards pronouncing English like a native speaker.

Language activities

Have fun while improving spoken English through drama, role-play, games and trips out and about to practise speaking in, for example, a Post Office or station.

Producing a class project

Children work in a team or on their own to create a souvenir of their time on the course, such as a course diary, class blog, magazine or perhaps a film.

BABSSCo provides:

• Assessment on arrival
• Progress monitoring
• End of course test
• End of course report and certificate
• Free course book or alternative learning resource such as a reading book or idioms dictionary
