Gaba Learning Materials

Gaba provides a series of learning materials developed by our own Academic Development section. All of our materials are designed specifically for learning and teaching in a one-to-one classroom and are based on direct feedback from clients. In a continuing effort to improve our curriculum and respond to client needs, Gaba has recently launched two new series of learning materials, Snapshots New and Business Advantage.

Our focus has always been on a communicative style of language learning. The newest materials focus on learning language in context while accomplishing specific tasks, such as ordering in a restaurant or disagreeing with someone's opinion. Our original learning materials emphasize fluency and communication while improving accuracy. It's all about how to use language like a native speaker, not just how many sentences you can make.

Snapshots New Series for daily tasks and situations
Business Advantage Series for business situations
Planet Series for travel situations
Career Series daily and business English for clients with international career ambitions
English Star for the children enrolled in the Gaba kids program
(*offered at select studios only)

Each lesson is supported with online resources, both for clients and instructors, including Instructor Support notes via the Gaba intranet, and online exercises for clients to review lessons from home. The Instructor Notes are an excellent resource for instructors and provide expansion options and tips on how to make sure clients get the most out of their lessons.
