The art of acquiring a language and its application is similar to that of weaving a tapestry. To ensure that the learners develop language proficiency, strands of the four primary skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing need to be interwoven in a balanced and effective way. Exposure and practice of these skills can help the learners become effective users of the language.

In light of the above mentioned, TRC offers a short course for those who wish to improve their proficiency in English language. This course explores the foundational sentence construction, problem words, common grammar mistakes, and much more through practical, hands-on exercises. You will learn through short videos, examples, and even fun games.

Take your English language proficiency to the next level!

Giving good feedback is one of the skills teachers need to master as part of meaningful assessment, as it can be very powerful if done well. Good feedback contains information that students can use, which means that students have to be able to hear and understand it.
