Specialized Language Training Center

SLTC is a private language school that has developed a unique and extraordinarily effective approach to language teaching, that compared with other existing methods, enables students to attain the same level of spoken fluency, and comprehension in considerably less time. SLTC offers flexible programs that provide organizations with a cost-effective... way to offer larger groups the benefits of SLTC's training techniques. Our special programs are designed for students and teachers of any language. We offer seminars ranging from a few hours to a few months, for groups of any size, and to fit any schedule. These seminars cover the "rules of communication" used in language training at SLTC. This powerful set of tools allows non-native speakers of any language to immediately and dramatically improve their ability to communicate with native speakers. Your foreign language is a product that you sell in your communication. Our unique methodology will help you to sell it with maximum profit and minimum investment from your side. SLTC also helps teachers to use communicative tactics as a principle of teaching speaking and listening. The transformation of these tactics into a set of teaching guidelines means: lesson planning and syllabus design are based on these tactics; unique exercises are used corresponding to these tactics with the teaching process consisting exclusively of the application of these exercises ; all selections of grammar material, vocabulary, and reference materials are determined by the nature of these exercises; all activities concentrate on the development of high CF (communicative focus), i.e., the automaticity of language based on communication. SLTC was founded by Boris Shekhtman in 1984.Read More
