Our Mission

Our mission is to provide education and training that equip students with real-life skills to advance themselves and make a significant and useful contribution to their communities. Delphin creates life-changing opportunities for children, teens and adults and neighbouring communities to realise a better future for themselves and their families.

Our Values

Caring: Young people perform at their best when they are in a caring, nurturing environment. Our family approach ensures this is the case.

Loyalty: Within their school families, students have responsibilities to each other, support each other and are loyal to each other. We regroup families from time to time to foster loyalty to all fellow students.

Flexibility: In a rapidly changing world, the future is uncertain. We encourage students to embrace opportunities and to open doors to new possibilities.

Resilience: Successful young people are confident that they can overcome adversity. That is why we focus on building resilience.

Challenge: We encourage students to take on and overcome challenges, constantly achieving higher goals and progressing in all aspects of their development.

Improving verbal communication

As teachers our common goal is to increase intrinsic motivation and by doing so the verbal communication in the classroom is increasing. The more that communication amongst the students is encouraged, the more enjoyable the students will find the experience, and the more motivated they will become as they begin realizing their language study goals.

Our Methods

Create a learning environment

It is the main task of our teachers to create an environment in the classroom which will maximize the opportunity to learn English. The Language teacher is the person who exercises the greatest influence on the student who is engaged in learning the language.

Once the student is in the classroom, it is the teacher's attitude and approach to teaching English that will have the greatest effect on the student’s level of intrinsic motivation. For a variety of reasons, students come into the classroom with different levels and varying degrees of motivation. Whatever the students level of motivation is, be it intrinsic or extrinsic, when they enter the classroom it is the students' teacher who is ultimately going to have the biggest effect on how motivated that student is going to become.

What is the Direct Method?

Learning a foreign language with this method is based on the way we learned our native language – we first learned to speak and only then to read and write.

In other words, through the direct method we create the necessary reflex for instant response, which helps us to express ourselves automatically in all situations, as we speak our native language.

Group activities are key

They are an excellent way to make the class more communicative. The students can use the language which they have already acquired as a means to work together between themselves as they accomplish each small task and basically continue learning from each other. This positive interaction between the students will build confidence and increase their motivation.
