HK$3,600 10 weeks Advanced Collocations Programme Code: GENG9012 To speak and write natural English, the use of collocations plays an important part. A collocation refers to two or more words that often go together. For example, we say fast food instead of quick food and quick shower but not fast shower. Mastering collocations will make your language more natural and more easily understood and thus have alternative and richer ways of expressing yourself.

We help you to achieve Standard English pronunciation of words (based on learning and practising the ‘correct’ vowel and consonant sounds), together with Standard English rhythm, stress, intonation, and tone. These are what is generally meant by “accent”. Learners will typically be employed or possess an interest in journalism, public relations, marketing, media and communications, but motivated applicants in other fields will be considered. The determined student should finish with an understanding of his/her pronunciation ‘issues’ and of how to modify his/her accent over time, after the course has finished. For clarity, British English Elocution is not a public speaking course for speechmakers. Applicants should be graduates and willing to take part in discussions and practical reading aloud and speaking exercises, ideally with little inhibition. They should be reasonably confident and fluent English speakers. Applicants should note that it takes self-awareness and persistence to permanently modify one’s speaking accent.
