Learning English as a Second Language
學習英語作為第二語言
The ESL program is suitable for new immigrants, international students and visitors.
There are altogether 8 distinct but interrelated modules within the program. 
Students must start with 'Syllabification' unless they do not possess sufficient phonological awareness. 
本 ESL課程適合新移民、留學生及旅客報讀，全套課程共有八個不同卻互相關聯的單元。
除非學生尚未具備足夠的語音意識，否則必須由「音節劃分法」開始 ​。

1. Syllabification
音節劃分法

This is the first module of the program. Over two 2-hr lessons, students will be able to gain basic knowledge of dividing words into syllables. This segmentation skill not only helps students learn to read and spell, but also build satisfaction and self-confidence in learning English instantly.
​此乃本課程的第一個單元 。只需兩課每次兩小時的課堂，學生便能夠掌握把單字分拆成音節的基本技巧。這種劃分法不但可以幫助學生閱讀和串生字，更可迅速地建立在學習英語上的成功感及自信心。

2. Phonics & Literacy
自然拼音與讀寫

For students who are yet to possess the basic phonological awareness needed to learn 'Syllabification', this is the module to begin with. Phonics basically teaches how to sound out words in the English language. It has proven to be an effective way to motivate children to read and spell. 
凡較年幼或未具基本語音意識來學習「音節劃分法」的學生，都由此單元開始。自然拼音法基本上教導兒童如何掌握英文字母和字母組合的發音，繼而有效地拼讀和拼寫新的單詞；無需額外學習音標，也無需死記硬背。
