SIDE BY SIDE FOR THE 1st AND 2nd GRADES

Besides our content based instructional program applied for the 1st and 2nd grades in primary school, we have two classroom teachers one of whom is fluent in Turkish and the other of whom is fluent in English. Experiencing English at all hours of the day, our students share various things both with their English and Turkish teachers. The language of instruction is Turkish and English in a synchronous manner. We carry out such activities that primarily target interpersonal communication skills and cognitive academic language skills which can be a source for our intensive content based program for the 1st and 2nd grades. We also create differentiated teaching opportunities for the adaptation of this education to different levels. 

Our students not only show success in daily English usage for communication purposes but also enrich their English vocabularies in many fields as a result of the content based education model. This, in turn, allows them to use the language they learn proficiently in the fields of science, sports and arts rather than for communication simply.
