La Lingua Language School
Yuko Spargo's Company Details
La Lingua teaches everyday English language, which can be practiced, used and improved while living, working, and studying in Australia, by overseas students and migrants. La Lingua offers not only English for Overseas Students (ELICOS) courses, but also Languages Other Than English (LOTE) courses, with the same style and teaching philosophy. The college is very different from traditional grammar-centred language schools, in that our conversation courses focus on real-life conversation skills, in small classes of 3-18 students. All teachers are qualified native speakers, trained in the college's original method, called the ‘POWER FUNC method'. "FUNC" is an acronym for Fun, Useful, Natural, Communication. The college's educational focus is to teach language that students can use immediately in their everyday life. Daily situations such as: ‘Meeting someone for the first time', ‘Ordering at the Take Away shop', ‘Job interview', ‘Party/Pub language', form the basis of each unit, and after each section, students are able to communicate in a particular situation, using the authentic expressions and gestures native speakers use in everyday life.
