Immerse's Learning Model

Lessons in Immerse are aligned with communicative language teaching practices. 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 choose their proficiency level with a placement tool. The Immerse placement tool uses descriptors and can-do statements to suggest a level.

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