Course information
The Summer High School program is designed for secondary school students. Particular attention will be given to spoken usage of the targeted language. A communicative teaching approach will be utilised by tutors which also includes some cultural content. The teaching and learning focus is on skill acquisition for practical application in real situations with native speakers. The course content is largely coordinated with the curriculum requirements in Queensland Schools.
