Avalon Quantum English (AQE) is a student-centred approach to learning that focuses on speaking and listening skills developed by Avalon School of English in London, a British Council accredited school with over 20 years’ experience.
AQE classes are organised around the student’s book. This is a syllabus, notebook and tool that students and their specially-trained AQE teachers will use together in the class.
AQE is a solution to a common problem. Despite studying English at secondary or even other language schools for many years, students regularly find themselves unable to use the language confidently or naturally.
Whether in film or music, on TV or the internet students are also conscious of difficulties in comprehending native speech compared to the written word. Our solution is not based on replicating a learning environment that has failed to prepare students for the world outside of a classroom.
Learning a language should not be like learning mathematics, it’s as much of a skill as learning to play a musical instrument or a sport. AQE students learn through practice and are motivated by expressing their opinions and interests in class.
They’re guided by specially-trained teachers who will correct their errors and teach from their needs.
AQE is for students who want the freedom, support and opportunity to practise and learn how to speak and comprehend natural English.
Our teaching materials are you and your needs and interests. If you wish to experience a new way of learning English that’s not only about knowing more but about being able to do more then AQE is for you.
