A relaxed, informal English course for adults who can already read and understand English fairly easily and want to speak more fluently. The focus is on building a large, practical vocabulary, including modern everyday English, slang, dialect and idioms, rather than on grammar.
Each week the group reads and discusses a new text the teacher has written for this level. Students pick up to 250 new words of their own choice from the texts over the season, using a method unique to this class. The teacher, David Isenberg, is a native English speaker, and English is mainly spoken in class.
