 Our main aim is that our students can really communicate in English with fluency, accuracy and good pronunciation. All aspects of the language are worthy of attention but we place special emphasis on the natural use of English and on encouraging our students to communicate with confidence and independence. All of our teachers are native and highly qualified. We form homogenous groups of students according to our level system. TERMLY COURSES  We offer courses of 3 and 6 hours per week between 8am and 9.30pm and 3 hour
courses on Friday evenings or on Saturday mornings. All groups have a maximum
of 12 students.FIRST CERTIFICATE, CAE & PROFICIENCY Our popular and successful Cambridge exam preparation courses for First Certificate, CAE and Proficiency have a pass rate of over 90%. CONVERSATION COURSES Our 3 hours a week conversation courses have a maximum of eight students per
group. The teachers prepare a series of activities according to the needs, level
and interests of each group with the aim of encouraging the active participation
of all the students. INTENSIVE COURSES Intensive
courses are ideal for those students who need to make rapid progress
in their language learning. They are organised on a monthly basis and each class
is 2½ or 3 hours long.SUMMER COURSES During the summer months of July, August and September we offer Intensive Courses
and Conversation Classes. The teaching of English to management and employees of companies and public authorities is a key activity of Hyland Language Centre, and is one of our most active and successful departments. Our clients clients range from multinationals and government bodies to small and medium sized firms. CLOSED COURSES Either in one-to-one classes or groups made up of personnel from the same company, these courses can be made-to-measure to the specific needs of the client, taking into account the recommendations of Hyland Language Centre. These courses are adjusted to the client's requirements of length, frequency, timetable and location of the classes. "OPEN" COURSES The personnel of the company join existing groups in our centre. We offer general, conversation and specific needs courses all year round. PROGRESS AND ATTENDANCE REPORTS Hyland Language Centre provides training managers with monthly attendance reports and progress reports at the end of every term and course. To measure the progress of each student we use the Hyland Language Centre level system and the ALTE (Association of Language Testers in Europe) framework. The ALTE framework is a system of five levels which correspond in general terms with the Council of Europe Reference Framework levels. The "Can do" statements are part of a long-term project carried out by the Association of Language Testers in Europe. An important aspect of the "Can do" statements is that they are multi-lingual.  Taught by native, qualified and experienced teachers, these are extremely active courses where children and adolescents learn to speak English and use their knowledge through games, activities and theatre. We form homogenous groups according to age and our young learners level system. IN-SCHOOL COURSES Hyland Language Centre has 18 years experience teaching extra-curricular English classes in some of the most prestigious primary and secondary schools in Madrid. The courses take place on the schools' premises, either outside normal school hours (at mid-day or in the afternoon) or during normal class time. The classes are complementary to the classes already being taught by the schools themselves and place great emphasis on oral communication and pronunciation. The academic year is the same as that of the schools'. TERMLY ON-SITE COURSESTwo hours a week on Mondays and Wednesdays or 2 hours on Fridays SUMMER COURSES Courses of 2½ hours a day for 8 to 15 year olds enabling young learners to improve their English in the summer without having to travel abroad. |
