Background

We teach students the necessary English Listening Skills in the 10 one-hour classes to excel in the Hong Kong Attainment Test (HKAT). Class size: 6 students per class

What we have

1) Structured lesson plans and teaching materials 2) A comprehensive online platform for students to revise and practice

Why this is important

Listening remains one of the most challenging aspects of second language acquisition, primarily due to the lack of an immersive English learning environment. This program fills the gap with 11 intensive listening Zoom classes and an online platform for revision and exercises. Our aim is to equip children with the skills necessary to excel at the HKAT.
