Quick Smart English is a topic-based English language course at various levels in line with the CEF (Common European Framework).
QSE uses affective, topical and sometimes controversial reading and listening material to present and revise structures and vocabulary and to develop communication skills.
The language structures are those found in widely-accepted international curricula.
The topic-based vocabulary is wide-ranging and based on real-life ideas and issues.
The learning tasks include integrated skills activities, with a particular focus on speaking.
Integrated CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) activities are in each Unit.
Although QSE Intermediate is not a dedicated exam preparation course, the structure and vocabulary practice, skills work, question types and supplementary test materials are all designed to help students prepare for international ESOL examinations.
QSE Intermediate is designed to cover a 70-90 hour course, although it can also be used in modules for skills development, in particular speaking practice.
