Many students think that English is just something you need to pass high school or college. However, at Ponterra, we believe that it is a powerful tool that can help you build a successful future. Our goal is to use English to create a bridge that will connect you with the rest of the world and give you an advantage. The truth is you can’t improve your English by memorizing words from a textbook o
r dictionary. The result is many years are wasted on studying but students are still unable to understand or speak to anyone. On the other hand, we believe that the keys to improving are usage and enjoyment. If you never practice the language in your everyday life, you won’t get used to it and if you’re not having fun, you won’t remember anything. Therefore, our lessons are all about using English in real situations and we make sure that they’re fun and relaxed. Remember that you can’t learn English just by studying it; you need to make it part of your life. Ponterra English Academy uses a more personal and practical method of English education. We want our students to be confident with English not just in the classroom but also out in the real world so we focus on things that are useful and enjoyable and not on boring rules and memorization. This is because we really care about the progress of our students and we’re not in this business just to make money. Other academies rely on untrained teachers who use very old teaching materials to save money. At Ponterra, all our teachers are carefully selected and well-trained to make sure they can teach every student effectively. Also, we make our own unique lesson plans for every class to ensure that every hour stays fresh and interesting. There’s a better way to learn English and with us, improvement is guaranteed because unlike other schools, we continuously innovate. We understand that the modern world requires modern techniques and we believe that every lesson should have a purpose that goes beyond the classroom.
