Our teachers have experience in dealing with people from a variety of cultures so each student feels nurtured, heard and respected regardless of where they come from. The centre has a small student- teacher ratio which ensures that everyone gets the attention they need. Our teachers who are patient and attentive care about each student individually and monitor their progress from the time they join the centre. The lessons are fun and interactive with audio-visual aids, debates and a variety of other activities to make the learning experience enjoyable. We understand your need. Making sure that our students are satisfied and progressing is our priority.
At CLAPS, we not only provide language classes but also offer a cultural and social experience. For a foreigner who has recently arrived in Uganda, our school is a great place for you to initiate yourself into the country as you make friends and interact with others who understand what it means to be far away from home.
The CLAPS team also administers English Proficiency Tests for new students joining IUEA whose prior education was not in English. This is a short interactive test between the student and the assessor, whose goal is to ensure that students have the necessary English competence needed to pursue their studies at IUEA. For those whose proficiency level is insufficient, the university has programs for remedial language classes.
