The importance of self-study

• You will be spending 20 weeks in the classroom
  but 32 weeks out of the classroom so self-study
  is of the utmost importance.
• Here are some things you can do to study alone
• study all the grammar points in the book not
  covered in class
• Use such sites as BBC Learning English to improve
  your language skills
• Access newspapers on line to practise reading
  newspaper articles (especially the second year
  students) such as the Guardian, the Times, the
  Independent, the Economist and so on.
• Access EFL websites such as Daves ESL Café,
  English-zone and Learn English to practise a
  variety of aspects
• Use the self-access material at the faculty and
  the CLA
