Langports Academic Way Langports aims to be unique in all ways: in what it does, in what it offers and in what it achieves. We are constantly striving to get the best outcomes for our student clients. This especially relates to our academic programmes, where we have used many years of experience and a wealth of knowledge to create the Langports Academic Way – L.A.W.

The benefits to students of L.A.W. are that our teachers:
InsteadofsimplyrelyingonthetraditionalEnglish language textbook approach,our teachers are trained to be able to teach beyond the textbook, exploringthe important areas of grammar and vocabulary. Modern research hashighlighted the importance of grammar and vocabulary being taught together,especiallyintheclassroom.
In order to achieve this, teachers atLangports,throughourin-house teacher training program,aretrainedonhowtoteachgrammarandvocabularyandhowto make it more understandable andenjoyable for students. Our academicdepartmentisalsoconstantlyworkingondeveloping its own teaching materials whichhelpbothstudentsandteachers.
Common feedback from our studentsis that Langports teachers are able toanswer their grammarquestions clearlyand easily, creating more ‘light-bulb’ moments–thisisaresultofL.A.W.
