Course Objectives – General English with IELTS, Cambridge FCE, Cambridge Business English BE, Trinity College ISE or TIE Examination Preparation
To develop the necessary skills to pass end-of-course external examinations. This involves improving the four skills of Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking as well as focusing on vocabulary development and grammatical accuracy.
To perform well in end-of-course external examinations.
To develop communication skills that enable learners to communicate in a multi-cultural environment. This includes developing some cultural understanding of both the local environment in Dublin, as well as the larger English-speaking community. This cultural understanding is linked to real-world contexts relevant when communicating in the English language.
To sustain interest and motivation over the length of the course through regular feedback and progress testing; as well as through the development of learner autonomy and by encouraging learners to partially negotiate their own learning.
To improve linguistic ability by two complete CEFR Performance Levels within the 6-month time-frame.
Enrolling for End-of-course Examinations
When a student begins their course at Citas College, they sign up to the end-of-course examination that they wish to sit (Trinity College London ISE Exam or TIE from IELT or PTE Academic from Pearson or IELTS or Cambridge FCE or Cambridge Business English BEC Vantage ). This is noted on their GNIB documents.
Students must pay for this examination on the point of enrollment. Examinations are scheduled approximately every 6 weeks (when requested, we can schedule extra examination dates.) Students must pre-register for their end-of-course examination with Citas College approximately three weeks before the date of the exam.
They are then obliged to sit the exam on this day. If they fail to attend, they must pay the examination fee again to sit the exam at a later date. For further information on pre-registering for examinations, please contact info@citas.ie
