English Summer School
Skouras Language Schools
Skouras Language School was established in 1976, with the aim of providing high quality educational programs for students of all ages. Since then, we have been operating 6 foreign language centres in Northern Greece all ensuring a high quality learning experience for our students.
The excellence of our educational services has propelled our company to the forefront of the sector, with courses combining cutting edge teaching methods, innovative technologies, and the best foreign language books, for students aged 6 through to adulthood.
Spreading our wings towards different and…warmer destinations has been an one way street pointing to the direction of the English Summer School establishment.
Children succesfully combine holidays with learning, in a multicultural environment that serves both educational and leisure purposes.
Teachers
The English summer school follows a modern communicative approach of teaching English, which emphasizes in learning through
the situational method (activities, games, theatre etc.). This ensures that lessons are student-centred and highly interactive. Students have the opportunity to practice speaking when learning grammar points, or having written tasks. All our teachers are highly qualified and most of them are native English speakers, coming from different parts of the world.
Director Of Studies
Christos Skouras is our Director of studies. He has 40 years of experience in teaching and managing Foreign Language Schools. Mr. Skouras is responsible
for the overall implementation and administration of all aspects of the academic program, including the management of the teaching team and their performance.
Program
Our summer English language course provides 1 hour (or 2 hours depending on the level) of tuition daily in the form of classes and workshops, with a class size of 12
students average.
We run all levels, from beginners (A1) to proficiency of the Cambridge University level (C2), provided that there will be a reasonable number of students for the appropriate level. The students’ English language ability is tested on arrival through an oral or written placement test.
Levels
Preliminary: At this level we address those students with 2 to 3 years experience of the English language. Students at this level will understand and participate in
basic English conversations.
Intermediate: At intermediate level students can understand most conversations. English responses, although not perfect, will come more naturally and
intelligently.
Advanced: Students have a good and expansive vocabulary and understand almost everything. They become confident and can go beyond the basic responses and
express themselves in different subjects.
Proficiency: At the top level students possess near fluency in their language ability. They can understand and respond to difficult questions, which includes abstract terms and phrases.
*At the end of their stay students will receive a certificate of attendance.
