50 Hour Language Training Program

The 50 hour program is for students with some level of established proficiency in the target language, Global LT recommends at least 50 hours of language training to be completed within 6 months. After 50 hours of training, the student's vocabulary should increase by an additional 800-1200 words in the target language.

Depending on the student's speaking proficiency level at the onset of lessons, a student might progress from a Novice-High/Intermediate-Low speaking level to a Intermediate-Low/Intermediate-Mid speaking level, and develop the skills necessary for the student to:

• Initiate, sustain and bring to a close a wide variety of communicative tasks, including limited job requirements.
• Convey meaning with diverse language strategies due to a complication or unexpected turn of events.
• Be understood through increasingly successful circumlocution.
• Write routine social correspondence and prepare documentary materials for most limited work requirements.
• Utilize a variety of verb tenses and grammatical structures.
• Read simple, authentic written material of a non-technical nature.
