”The limits of my language are the limits of my world.”

Ludwig Wittgenstein

The program focuses on four key areas, listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

Skill Specific Comprehension

Reading comprehension is very important for a student’s academic achievement. Strong comprehension skills ensure success in all subject areas. It is a prerequisite for acquiring knowledge and expressing opinions and ideas. The program works extensively on comprehension skills and strategies.

Vocabulary

There is a strong, unequivocal relation between comprehension skills and a good vocabulary. At ileap, we conduct activities that encourage students to connect new vocabulary to prior knowledge and use them in reading, writing, and conversation. 

Grammar

Grammar is an important tool for written and spoken language. Students develop a good understanding of sentence style and structure in order to excel at tests and writing assignments.

Writing Skills

The comprehensive writing program includes sessions on the structure of writing and different genres of writing. For the beginning, struggling, or reluctant writers, this structured program provides an essential foundation in thinking and writing skills. For proficient and advanced writers, it offers strategies, techniques, and opportunities to apply them.
