Our Academic Approach
Our teaching ethos for the Residential English Tours is built around the teaching principles of the English Speaking Board (ESB), one of the United Kingdom’s oldest and most respected language education organisations.
Established in 1953, ESB pioneered the learner-led approach to English learning — developing students’ ability to think, speak, and respond confidently in English. This same approach is at the heart of every Residential English Tours lesson at ILC Hua Hin.
During the Residential English Tours, every lesson follows these principles:
Students deliver short structured talks
Students read aloud to build fluency and pronunciation
Students engage in natural question-and-answer sessions
Students use English actively, not passively
Speaking is not a side skill — it is the foundation of the Residential English Tours programme. Students develop critical thinking, vocabulary, pronunciation, and real-world communication skills — the tools they need to succeed academically and professionally.
English Courses
All courses on the Residential English Tours are delivered fully in English by qualified teachers, ensuring every lesson is engaging, practical, and focused on measurable speaking progress.
Courses available for Thai school groups on the Residential English Tour include:
Skills for Speaking (English Speaking Board method)
Communication Skills (Trinity College London framework)
Disney English (ages 7–11)
Cambridge Young Learners English (Starters, Movers, Flyers)
Trinity GESE exam preparation
IELTS preparation courses
Each Residential English Tours class has a maximum of 15 students to allow for personalised attention. Lessons run daily from 08:30 to 11:40, with no mobile phones permitted during class to maximise participation and focus.
Whether students are preparing for an exam or simply building their confidence, every course on the Residential English Tour is designed to accelerate English communication skills.
