THE KOÇ SCHOOL

English

Our English courses, designed in line with the Ministry of National Education’s Maarif Model, offer a literature-based learning program that develops students’ language skills through a holistic approach. In addition to strengthening reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills, the program supports 21st-century competencies such as critical thinking, creativity, communication, and intercultural awareness.

Our program integrates the frameworks of Social and Emotional Learning, Action, and Values as a natural part of teaching and learning. It provides opportunities for students to enhance essential life skills such as empathy, collaboration, responsibility, self-regulation, and contributing to their community.

In class, students engage in both academic and creative writing; develop their oral communication and presentation skills; explore global issues through contemporary texts; and build their digital literacy. This process enables them to use English effectively and confidently in both academic and everyday contexts.
