English als Fremdsprache : Gruppe 8-11

We understand ourselves and the world we live in through the languages we speak, and through the stories we tell and are told.
This English language course combines a traditional EFL programme with elements from our creative writing, art, and theatre departments to provide children with a fostering, collaborative environment in which they can become acquainted with, reflect on, and question the meanings of stories from different cultures, times, and places together, before going on to create their own—in English.
Alongside improving their English, this multidisciplinary course will allow students to develop an understanding of how and why stories work whilst developing their speaking, reading, and writing skills. The theatre games integrated into each class will help them become more confident in their communication, while the independent responses produced at the end of each class will allow them to experiment with different ways of expressing themselves creatively and find their own voice.
