ESL/ELL Level 2

Course Features

Assessment Test

Before enrolling in a course, to help us gauge your language ability, we will arrange an assessment test for students to confirm English proficiency and areas which need improvement.

Adaptive Teaching Style For Maximize Performance

CanStar carefully and constantly monitors the progress of all students throughout the courses we provide. 

Our well-qualified teachers use tests (called “standardized assessments”) and assignments, presentations, and exams (called “summative assessments”) to ensure that students develop their language skills and understanding of the language, its overall structure and content. 

Our teachers regularly coach good habits to attain a deeper understanding of English and its proper usage. 

We provide a regular monthly progress report that details every student’s study performance to parents and students.

ELL Level 2 Introduction - Developmental Stages

The ELL2 level seamlessly takes students who have completed ELL1 to the next level of language learning, further establishing their confidence as they progress. 

 

There are four main aspects to the course:

Listening: By a combination of repetitive narration and practical teaching, students will begin to understand a series of simple, specific words, phrases and sentences. Through intensive tuition from our creative teachers, they will also learn how to listen to easy-to-understand questions and form a reply accordingly.

Speaking: Speaking is important, and our teachers will assist all students with their oral development, correcting inaccuracies in word usage or pronunciation. One key aim is to develop the students’ vocabulary and encourage them to ask and answer simple questions. We also require students to narrate stories or their own experiences to build confidence in spoken English.

Reading: Concurrent with improving students’ speaking abilities, this course section aims to develop their reading comprehension skills so that they can read sentences independently. We will teach students to identify the critical elements of sentences and answer simple, direct questions about the content.

Writing: As students become more familiar with the English language, we help develop their writing skills, so they can start to better understand more about grammar and tenses, conjunctions, definite or indefinite articles and plural forms. Students will learn how to use complete sentences, use more descriptive vocabulary and build up the structure and organization of their essays based on a central theme.

Course Content

Building on the foundation of the language taught in ELL1, the ELL 2 course carries forward the momentum to help develop an understanding of daily and more academic-based vocabulary. One of the key focus areas is to ensure that students improve their knowledge of the language through practicing verb usage and using simple sentence patterns. In addition, effectively practicing oral communication and listening comprehension through in-class discussions and presentations helps students quickly develop their language skills and confidence.
