CIP’s teaching Philosophy:
CIP produces students who are confident and prepared for a competitive world by aiding them in
becoming proficient in English. CIP teachers:
1. Give knowledge and facilitate understanding- CIP teachers reinforce previous knowledge and use both
old and new knowledge to build a greater understanding of more complex topics.
2. Help and challenge- CIP teachers challenge their students to produce quality work in class and other
activities. This can be done if they are also helped to develop the skills necessary to make that possible.
3. Respect and support students- ESL teaching involves consideration of the culture and uniqueness of
each student. Each student has their own learning style, speed of progress, beliefs on how to learn and
personality, therefore each class in CIP is personalized by the teacher accordingly.
Recommended study duration:
4 weeks- 24 weeks. In CIP, students are recommended to attend the IELTS, TOEIC or Business course
once they reach pre-intermediate or pre-intermediate advanced level.
