• Language

8. The importance of language
• With globalisation
– take hold of the world by
storm
– multilingual is a prerequisite
– to be a citizen of the world

• Language is…
– the vehicle for the communication of
ideas

33. Our Success Stories
“Having studied French at several different centres,
Agape School of Education (previously named
Alpha Omega Education Centre) is unique in that it
does away with the “one size fits all” approach
and customises its French programme to suit
individual needs – and surpasses your wildest
expectations. I ended up passing DELF A1, A2
and B1 levels with results I couldn’t believe!
Furthermore, M. Gilbert combines fun and efficacy
in potent blend, so I leave each lesson exhausted
but extremely satisfied. And I did this in six months
while serving full-time national service. So if you’re
a NS-man and you want to ORD with a new
language under your belt, AGAPE is definitely the
”
place to get it!
– Bryan Ho (DELF A1, A2 & B1 2006)
