TESTIMONIALS
Junior College
Students will be exposed to well-known essays as well as documentaries and research articles which will be used as resources in the teaching of the writing techniques and the reinforcement of grammar and language conventions prevalent in the genre. These resources will also be used to enable the students to explore a wide range of topics. Through this exploration, students get the opportunity to analyse critically on these topics before coming up with their own substantiated arguments to support the positions they have decided to adopt with regard to the issues found in the topics. Apart from writing, these resources will be used to facilitate advanced reading comprehension skills that explore inferential and subtle nuances in the writing
