ALIVE Communication

Lesson Content

ALIVE Communication is designed to build reading, speaking, listening and to a lesser extent, writing and grammar skills for both Native and non-Native English speakers. We have a highly interactive theme-based format which encourages students to express themselves with increasing confidence through a variety of media. Our mission is to develop independence and confidence through collaborative, meaning rich tasks with reading, writing, speaking and listening as well and regular practice and reinforcement of relevant developmental literacy skills. Each unit consists of ten lessons which can be customised to your needs. Each lesson requires 1 to 1.25 hours. We integrate a variety of media (Video, PowerPoint, Interactive web sites, resources, books and reference material etc.) to ensure children are engaged and stimulated. We adopt an inquiry approach to learning where children learn how to question and draw upon their own curiosity as a foundation for learning.
