THE APPROACH
Our approach
to English.
What does ‘Think Bilingual’ mean?
Think Bilingual means being able to think directly in English without mentally translating from French. This is the goal of the English With Zac approach: to understand, formulate ideas and respond naturally in English.
Why so much speaking practice?
Many French speakers know grammar rules but hesitate to speak. Our classes devote most of the time to speaking, interaction and practical situations so that English becomes a communication tool rather than a theoretical subject.
