Academic ServicesSupport Program EAL/ESL/ESOL

Fostering and supporting English language proficiency.
Our program, taught by current international school teachers, balances and supports the four language skills of reading and writing, and speaking and listening in order to develop ability and build confidence.
Program Features

01:Fast-tracking of ‘EAL Exit’
Effective scaffolding and support
Students receive targeted instruction to build strong English proficiency across reading, writing, listening, and speaking, enabling them to exit the EAL program and join mainstream classes.
02:Individualised support
Student-centric
While upholding academic standards, especially EAL program exit criteria, the primary emphasis remains on nurturing each student’s unique skill development.
03:Conceptual Learning
Conceptual understanding-based learning
Building strong conceptual understanding equips our students with transferable learning and language skills for success across the mainstream curriculum.
04:Direct school connection
Dual support system
Direct links to the school, particularly its EAL department, provide targeted support for each student’s unique education plan.
05:Learning beyond the EAL exit
Student and parent support
Students have weekly online lessons, as well as homework and question support outside of lesson times, and parents are provided with 24/7 Email support.
