New courses, new books, new knowledge!

 

Don’t miss out on your chance to improve your language skills and open a world of opportunities.

Koh Samui Language School

 

Koh Samui Tutor and Vocational School is Samui’s oldest licensed Thai and English Language School. With Thai and English owners, we take the finest aspects from both cultures and combine them to provide an unforgettable educational experience.

 

Our ability to provide education visas has helped us to create a stable learning environment for our students. Stable and secure working and learning environments are almost just as important as the teacher you have.

 

Our triple award winning educational institute is the most accredited, long running, successful language and vocational school in Samui. With almost 10,000 satisfied students to date, affordable courses, no hassle education visa service, and highly trained professional staff, we really are the first choice language school on Koh Samui.

Our Courses

 

Our brand new courses start in July.  Whether you’re looking to improve your conversation skills, study for IELTS, or start leaning Thai, we cater for all your educational needs.

Please browse our courses on our website for more information. You can then click the “Register” button to sign up for the class. Or, feel free to call in to our Maenam office to discuss your options in more detail and meet the teachers.

Cutting Edge Third Edition

 

We use the brand new Cutting Edge Third Edition for our English courses. Engaging texts, new video content, and a comprehensive digital package are just some of the new features that make the new courses even more effective. New features of the course include ‘Language Live’ and World Culture lessons that actively encourage students to expand their knowledge of global issues and participate in classroom discussions.

 

Keep motivated with a striking design and fresh new content

 

  • New ‘World Culture’ DVD lessons encourage the discussion of global issues and provide greater international perspective.
  • New writing lessons help with emails, letters, reports, etc.
  • The ActiveTeach with interactive whiteboard tools, DVD, audio, transcripts, dictionary and additional resources aid learning.

 

Improve quicker with more practise and better reference tools

 

  • The new ‘Study, Practise, Remember’ section at the back of the book provides integrated language summaries and practise exercises.
  • The ‘Student DVD’ with audio and video plus transcripts allows you to review the lessons and catch up if you miss a class.
  • The new feedback functionality and exercises in ‘MyEnglishLab’ give you greater control of your learning.

 

MyEnglishLab

 

MyEnglishLab is an online tool, provided for free with our new course books. You complete your face-to-face instruction at school to introduce new topics and ideas then complete extra learning outside class using the online tools.

 

You practise the content you have learned at school in an interactive environment, with instant feedback and tips to scaffold your learning.

 

Each activity is built into a lesson plan and helps you practise speaking, listening, reading, and writing.

 

MyEnglishLab builds assessment into each activity, so you don’t need to take sit-down tests every week in order to monitor your progress and performance.

 

You can use the MyEnglishLab gradebook to see where you need improvement and it helps us as teachers personalise your learning journey. With a quick look at the gradebook or common error report, teachers can ensure that we target your weak areas. MyEnglishLab will show us how you are performing, so we don’t need to guess what you’re finding difficult.

Saturday School

Reading, writing, speaking, listening, and FUN!

Our Saturday School offers students the best learning experience possible!

We provide an interactive, engaging learning experience that gives students the opportunity to make friends, have fun, and learn something new!

We offer small groups with highly qualified teachers. Our teachers guide students through a fun and educational English course that encourages them to build competence and confidence as learners. Our course includes an excellent variety of creative activities that encourage children to develop academic, personal, and social skills.

Dress for Success!

There are many times in life that a person is judged upon how well they are dressed. The way you dress can impact the way teachers and other students perceive you. We want everyone to feel comfortable, but we also want to be seen as a smart and professional establishment.

 

Dressing for success and following the dress code policy will help you obtain the respect and credibility necessary from everyone here at Koh Samui Language School and those looking at us from outside.

 

Now that we have to provide daily photographs to immigration, please ensure you come to school in smart-casual attire. Here are a few tips to get you going!

 

Book Sale

 

We have lots of extra ‘New Cutting Edge’ books from this year available to buy now. We have new books for the new courses starting in July, so these are available as supplementary material. They are perfect for home study, extra practise, or for friends/family who do not have time to study at school.

 

Cutting Edge is a communicative course with a task-based approach to help you achieve your goals. The books are very visual and include grammar and vocabulary with exercises that make the learning process more memorable and engaging. They cover a wide range of topics with multimedia material.

Immigration are important for Education visas!

We have a great relationship with immigration here in Koh Samui for ED visas.

Probably the best relationship of any school on the island.

ED visas

We have had several visits from our immigration friends recently to check that you’re all attending your classes for your ED visas.

Don’t forget that it is part of your ED visa regulations to attend your classes every week. Other schools are being closed down because students aren’t attending! So, please help yourself and us by attending as many classes as possible to ensure there aren’t any problems.

Immigration like to see photos of you all, so we will be taking photos at the end of every class to send to them.

Most of all, it makes us happy when you come to class!
We hope to see you soon.

 

TOEFL/IELTS Preparation Course

 

International students and workers must take a standardised test of English to move into higher levels of education and employment.

There are two popular tests that universities and employers use. They are the Test of English as a Foreign Language, TOEFL, and the International English Language Testing System, IELTS. They are both internationally recognised qualifications that demonstrate English-language proficiency.

The exams are similar in content and assessment. See our handy conversion scale below.

Our NEW preparation course will ensure you have all the skills necessary to take either test and achieve your desired score.

Who is this course for?

 

  • Students planning to study at a higher education institution

 

  • People wanting to travel to English speaking countries

 

  • English-language learners who want to track their progress

 

  • Students and workers applying for visas
