Nisai Holistic English Language Proficiency Programme (N-HELPP)
N-HELPP brings together all of our best practice with live teaching through the Nisai Virtual Academy in addition to Units of Sound and WordQ software suites.
Improvement in English supports progress across the full curriculum whilst providing greater opportunity in the workplace and beyond.
We believe in an impactful, meaningful, personalised approach to teaching English as a language rather than a subject. This can help students to develop skills to become life-long learners.
Learning English as a language provides the opportunity for students to learn everyday, usable English to aid communication. This supports in building confidence and self-esteem and develops the whole person rather than just knowledge.
Our offer includes:
- 1 year subscription to Units of Sound
- 1 year subscription to WordQ
- 40 hours of live teaching
