Thomas Legge's viewpoint, representing Momoyama Gakuin University

‘Students felt quite a strong sense of improvement in both their confidence and motivation by the end of the course.’

‘Two aspects of the course were particularly appreciated…the opportunity to talk to students from different countries and…an opportunity to improve speaking, communication and pronunciation.’

‘...students reported being able to learn about different cultures or customs as part of the course.’

‘The English Online programme is aligned to the British Council Curriculum Framework. All of its teachers are qualified with internationally recognized qualifications.’

‘Access is provided to a dashboard, enabling the institution to monitor its students…facilitating the provision of university credit or other recognition.’
