Bilingual Brains
The Bilingual Brains program is dedicated entirely to multilingual education and learning another language. Regardless of where you are on your language journey we offer courses designed to meet your needs. We offer classes for three types of English. All classes will encourage you to develop your reading, writing, listening and speaking proficiencies.
Everyday English is the informal English we use casually everyday and where many of us start when learning a new language. Everyday English is used with our regular routines talking with friends or family, grocery shopping, visiting a doctor, making travel plans, communicating with your child’s teachers, and keeping yourself informed about what is happening in your community. This is a first step in your language development journey.
Business English is the professional English we use at work. We use formal English with colleagues, coworkers, clients, and customers to communicate professionally. You will learn to express your business needs whether you are making a phone call, sending out an email, taking part in a meeting, networking, giving a presentation, or having small talk with a colleague. This is a second step in your language development journey.
Academic English is the English we use in education. It is also the English we often end up using in professional settings. Academic English is needed for grades K-12, in college or when you are preparing for a language proficiency exams like the TOEFL test. For academics, you need a strong reading and writing foundation. You will need to know how to read and write for different purposes, identify the main idea, know how to do research, write essays or professional papers, use different vocabulary, and express yourself in different ways. This is also a second step in your language development journey.
