What is Kurus English?
Kurus English is a premium school in Cape Town, South Africa which provides teaching and learning opportunities for the development of competence in English as an international language.
Language
At Kurus English, our name is revealed in action. We provide English language tuition and courses, guiding and improving your English in best practice, for international purposes. To achieve this, we always aim to give our fullest support, to guide and encourage the language learner to become a global communicator: clear, fluent and confident in the communicative use of English for international purposes.
All language-learning benefits from opportunities to use the language in environments which are stimulating as well as fun-filled and touched by adventure. As a profoundly effective complement to our international language curriculum, we offer language-learning opportunities, promoted through culture and occasions for language discovery. During the Language Excursions your experienced teachers become your language guides. Kurus English will most surely contribute, to every learner, a language experience combined with cultural exploration that is not only unique, but also inspired.
Culture
In order to promote and support the learning of English, we offer language opportunities through historical, social, business and cultural Language Excursions. We meet diverse and relevant people for further, out-of-the-classroom, language practice and language exploration. Authentic and informative language texts are provided and taught in preparation for these excursions. Language Excursions enter into the very fabric of Cape Town and its society, providing you, not only with opportunities for learning English, but also expanding your cultural competence as an ever more important soft, social skill.
Discovery
When we are relaxed, engaged and communicating authentically, this is when we learn best. Communicating in English cross-culturally and internationally is an adventure. Through language exploration, we meet new people, expand ourselves and experience new worlds. Culturally-diverse and historically-rich, Cape Town and its environs provide many such opportunities – and this is language discovery.
The twin pillars of culture and discovery and their relationship to positive language-learning outcomes, combine to form a profoundly effective complement to our core language curriculum aim, of best communicative competence in English as an international language.
Kurus English unites language, culture and discovery opportunities into a unique and powerful whole-learning experience; one which you will never forget!
