General English: Fluency Courses

Taking advantage of all the possibilities offered by modern technology, deb8 launches pioneering conversational courses programs aimed at improving our students’ oral skills (broader vocabulary and fluency) in General English (levels B1 – C2).
The students come in contact online with the tutor they have chosen, and for a full hour, they talk about only one specific topic.
At the start of the lesson, the students gain access to a vocabulary file (already put together by our writers’ team) which contains the words and phrases necessary to carry out conversation on this topic.
After the teacher has explained any unknown words there may be, the teacher and student(s) talk about that specific topic alone for one full hour, and every effort is being made for the latter to incorporate the new words in their speech.
The time necessary to fully cover one topic depends on its difficulty and on the participants’ ability to assimilate and use the (new) vocabulary.
The courses described above can be modified if the participants have already registered for official examinations and wish to practice for the oral part of those examinations (all tests, all levels).
In cases where 2 candidates are interviewed and the course is conducted as a 1-1 tutorial, then there is role-play with the tutor.
The modified program cannot last less than 20 hours.
The duration of the course for each level does not exceed 30 – 50 hours depending on the level being taught and the student(s)’ needs.
A short placement test is a prerequisite. 

The topics dealt with in every level are the following:
