Englishleap Introduces Group Session With Teachers

Online, December 28, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Englishleap.com, an English learning website, which started in the middle of 2011, has established itself as one of the leading platforms for English learning over the last few months. The website has redefined English learning by leveraging technology to provide the learners with the necessary tools to become fluent English speakers.

A biweekly feature for subscribers of this platform is the group sessions with the teachers. These sessions give the student an opportunity to speak to a teacher and address their problems areas. The students also get a chance to talk amongst themselves and develop more confidence in spoken English.

These sessions are organized by EnglishLeap at a time convenient for the students. For the students who are working, these sessions are usually held after office hours or on weekends. Each of these sessions have a duration of an half hour to an hour. These sessions have been scientifically designed so that the students are able to understand a particular concept or develop fluency in English for a particular situation.

Conversational role plays in English are an integral part of these group sessions. For example, during a group session on visiting a restaurant, the teacher took the role of a waiter at a restaurant. Each of the students was asked to order food from the menu. The teacher made recommendations on the specials. The teacher also enacted real-life situations of some menu items being unavailable. The students were asked to either appreciate the food or complain about the food. Each of the students was given enough practice on the restaurant situation.

At the end of the session, the teacher pointed out mistakes of the students which would help them improve during an actual restaurant visit.

At other times, these group sessions focus on grammatical concepts where the students are most likely to make a mistake. Some students also have some doubts which they want to clear with the teacher. It has been noticed that these doubt clearing sessions are helpful for the other students because these mistakes are usually generic to most learners.
