The course was designed to enhance participants' grasp of English grammar, with a special focus on tenses, narration, and the appropriate use of formal and informal language. Delivered through engaging, activity-based sessions, the programme included interactive discussions, role-plays, group tasks, and individual exercises aimed at building language proficiency and confidence. In addition to classroom activities, participants were encouraged to expand their vocabulary by learning new words and idioms daily.
