Wits Language School's EFL course - Learning English in South Africa

With success in the academic and business worlds, being largely dependent on your degree of proficiency in English, both internationally and in South Africa, this course helps learners to improve their passive and active knowledge in all areas of English and in all aspects of their lives. The WLS course in EFL focusses on developing reading, writing, listening and speaking skills to the level of proficiency required for further academic studies, or entry into the business environment.

This seven-week course runs from 2 July – 21 August and does not have a minimum admission requirement, other than literacy in your own language, and all learners ranging in proficiency from absolute beginners to those who are fairly proficient are encouraged to enrol. If you feel like your English will not meet the requirements of tertiary study or the workplace, or if you simply want to be able to socialise with confidence in English speaking environments, this is the course for you!

Course outcomes include:

• Improve the accuracy of your grammar and pronunciation, expand your vocabulary and develop your skills in speaking, listening, reading
  and writing, across a range of different contexts
  
• Improve aspects of English grammar, such as the correct use of tenses, pronouns and prepositions
