LSI Language Learning System We’re passionate about language learning. That’s why we’re constantly reviewing the latest trends and methodology in the field.

Academic staff from every LSI school participate in the research and development of our programmes. We ensure that the latest theories of language learning are considered and tested throughout our centres.

That’s why every one of our schools is a healthy environment for learning. It also means that our students benefit from a massive academic team based throughout 15 schools in 8 different countries. Developed and refined over the last 40 years, the following points are fundamental to our language learning system:

Language ImmersionAt LSI we believe that the best way to learn a language is to study in the country where the language is spoken. We want you to immerse yourself in the culture or, as we say, ‘live the language’. This is the most efficient and satisfying way to learn the language, and remains at the core of LSI’s language learning system. LSI LevelsUpon arrival at any LSI school, we’ll give you a comprehensive language level test so we ensure you go straight into the right level for you. LSI levels have been closely matched against the Common European Framework, TOEFL iBT, TOEIC, IELTS and Cambridge English Language Assessment examinations. To move up to the next LSI level you need to master our specific ‘level objectives’, which you can demonstrate by test scores and class participation.

At LSI we understand that some students learn faster than others, so our course is tailored for you as the individual. Through systematic testing and teacher appraisal, the school academic director will track your progress and will identify exactly when you have mastered the level objectives and are ready to move up to the next level.

Latest MaterialsWe’re constantly reviewing the latest materials available for language learning. We provide you with what our academic team have identified as being the very best course books currently available for your level. We are also committed to providing the latest technology inside the classroom. We utilise the most cutting edge audio, video and web based resources. Online Resources/Distance Learning We understand that the internet is making profound changes to language learning. That’s why we’re committed to building an online community of language learners.

We have developed and continue to build a series of online resources that mirror the week by week in-class programme at each of our centres worldwide. Although these resources cannot replace the benefits of language immersion or the unique experience in the school, they are a comprehensive supplement to our in-class programme and can be used independently for distance learning. You can follow our programme online before arriving at the school and you can continue studying after leaving the school. For more details on how we’re using technology to expand our programme, visit our website.

Cultural ExchangeWe are proud of and committed to the cultural exchange that happens within our centres. As you ‘learn and live the language’ you will gain a greater understanding of the country that you are studying in. And as our students come from all over the world, our centres are not just places to learn languages, but are also places to meet people from other backgrounds and cultures. This is why our students find our programme to be such an enriching experience. Quality TeachersWe understand that our students’ single most identifiable measure of programme quality is the teacher. That’s why at LSI we only work with the very best teachers; experienced, highly motivated and qualified with country specific teaching credentials.

We have a systematic programme of teacher development and performance evaluation. All of our students are regularly invited to provide feedback so that we can ensure that your teacher meets your expectations.

Conditional letters of admissionA growing number of colleges and universities in the UK, USA and Canada are offering conditional admission for international students. Conditional admission is perfect for international students who are academically qualified but need to improve their English skills before they begin their degree programmes.

How does conditional admission work? A students applies to a university or college and, if they meet the academic requirements, they are issued with a conditional letter of admission. This letter states which additional requirements are needed before the student can begin their programme. These additional requirements focus on meeting the English language requirements of the university or college.

Students at LSI schools in the UK, USA and Canada may receive conditional letters of admission for their chosen university or college which ensure them places on degree courses subject to completion of an LSI programme. Some of LSI’s partner universities in the USA and Canada accept LSI’s own levels as proof of English language ability; other institutions may require either IELTS or TOEFL iBT scores.

LSI can arrange a conditional letter of admission to your chosen university or college for you before you arrive. Once you begin your course at LSI, our academic team prepare you to meet the additional language requirements for your course and take you step by step through the application process.

ISY & Your ExpectationsAs ISY courses are anywhere from 24 to 48 weeks in length we expect our students to achieve excellent results.

The level reached after an ISY course depends on a variety of factors:• Duration of the course – the longer

the course, the better the results• Number of lessons – often a more

intensive course taken over a shorter period yields better results

• The language level of the students – the higher the language level, the more time it may take to advance to the next level

Final results will always depend on you, the student. Active participation in afternoon social activities, making new friends from all over the world, immersing yourself in the local culture, as well as speaking the target language as much as possible will have enormous results on your achievements.

My teacher besides being competent and friendly, helped me practice and improve my English. I really felt at home. I had happy days and it was an experience that I won’t forget. I really recommend it to everyone!Maite Ataide Adam
