The principles of our philosophy
The learning of language needs to be in a social context in order to be learnt effectively. As language is a human function which supports the expressing of ones own views, emotions, needs, requests and transmitting of autobiography, history, identity and beliefs in every day society. Thus the learning environment needs to closely authentically resemble that worldly experience. Our set of learning principles that support and guide the development of quality programs and products are as follows:
Principle 1 – Language learning needs to be contextual and social as our brain is wired socially, thus we are social and emotive beings
Principles 2 – Language needs to be learnt in a stimulating environment which makes the learner to be a willing and active participant
Principle 3 – Language learners need to be encouraged to make mistakes and celebrate their milestones towards their goals
Principle 4 – Language learning needs to provide opportunities for students to practise and experience the language in different settings (eg. formal and informal)
Principle 5 – The learning environment must be safe, respectful, empowering and supportive for everyone irrespective of their cultural background and lifestyle
Principle 6 – The learning of language must contribute towards the learners’ social and emotional wellbeing
Principle 7 – The commitment to learning needs be fostered from both the teacher and the learner
Principle 8 – Language learning needs to be accessible and available in the range of latest technology to the learner.
