It can be completed face-to-face for one month or online, for three weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The online course involves real-time teaching, guided learning activities which participants are expected to complete largely on their own with some assistance from peers and instructors, as well as independent learning activities. Each class will be 3 hours (for a total of 9 hours), per week. Applicants must select a class time for each of the days selected, either 9:00 am &#8211; 12:00 noon (AST) or 6:00 pm &#8211; 9:00 pm (AST).<\/p>\n<p>As part of the course, participants will be expected to monitor their own learning through reflective oral\/written activities. \u00a0Instructors will present materials, activities, resources, strategy training, assignments and assessments which complement each other to improve participants\u2019 knowledge and proficiency. The idea is to help participants discover how the parts of the language as a system are put together to work integratively.<\/p>\n\n                    <p><b>Registration Status:<\/b> Open<\/p>\n                                    \n                    <!-- Course Details Button Div -->\n                    <div class=\"button-div\">\n                        <a class=\"coursedetail-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cavehill.uwi.edu\/cell\/cell-course\/general-english\/\">\n                          Course Details\n                        <\/a>\n                      <br class=\"clear\">  <br class=\"clear\">\n                    <\/div> <!-- Ends Button Div -->\n                  \n                <\/div> <!-- Ends Course Description Div -->\n              \n            <\/div> <!-- Course Summary Block Ends Here -->\n\n\n\n            \n            <P> &nbsp;<\/P>\n\n        <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<section class=\"OpenProgrammes\">\n<div class=\"lc-block\">\n<div editable=\"rich\">\n<h3 class=\"notice-section-title\"><\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CHOOSE A COURSE DEVELOP AS A PROFESSIONAL FIND OUT MORE ABOUT US LEARN WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT US Welcome Here is a great opportunity for you to improve your English language skills in a total immersion programme on a safe, beautiful island.&nbsp; If English is not your first language, the Centre for English Language Learning [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"slim_seo":{"description":"This course aims to develop the student\u2019s communicative competence by adopting an integrated-skills approach.
