Tour of Immerse & Learning Opportunities

Overview of Immerse

Immerse's Learning Model

Lessons in Immerse are created with communicative language teaching practices in mind. The practices that inform our learning model are:

Communicative Language Teaching
- Role-plays
- Interviews
- Group work
- Information gap
- Opinion sharing
Task-Based Teaching
- There is a focus on pragmatic meaning.
- Learners choose the linguistic resources needed to complete the task.
Emergent Language
- Emergent language is language that "comes up," often unpredictably, in interaction between the learners, and/or the teacher and the learners.

Immerse Levels

When Members register with Immerse they self-assign their proficiency level using descriptors and can-do statements for the three levels.

We currently offer four levels: Foundations, Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. Members have the freedom to take classes at any level. Click here to learn more about selecting the best language level for you.
