Our Fast Track dual programme of literacy (Corrective Reading) and English
language (Speak English!) provides two courses for teenagers and adults,
which they can study simultaneously or successively, according to need. Both
courses can teach the student from scratch.
Speak English! is Real Action's unique presentation of the highly reputed
Callan programme for people seeking to learn English as speedily as
possible - English in a quarter of the time. Real Action makes it uniquely
available to newcomers to Britain unable to afford the private fees for a
programme otherwise only available commercially. Like Real Action's other
programmes it provides direct instruction - and outstandingly speedy
results, enabling new Londoners to integrate as active participants in the
community in which they live.
The students on the Corrective Reading strand of the programme include
people who are totally illiterate, dyslexics, youngsters and others who have
gone to school, but not been taught to read properly; people from overseas
who want to read and write English. The course is notably successful in
helping the hardest-to-help; the people who find that education and job
opportunities are out of their reach; many of whom have to be coaxed out of
a lifetime of concealment of their difficulties. The literacy programme is
of great economic and social value as it enables people to jump the barriers
to training and jobs and avoid socially costly lifestyles.
