TLI Teaching Philosophy
Student-centered
"Student-centered" is TLI's highest principle for language teaching. Teaching method, teacher training, and teaching material development are all focused on being student-centered. We advocate using different materials or methods to teach different types of students, so we can make learning more fun and let students use what they have learned. Therefore, classes at TLI will never be boring.
TLI Teaching Strategy
1. Emphasis on speaking practice and improving listening and speaking abilities.
2. 80% of conversation class is for speaking practice.
3. Effective use of supplementary teaching materials.
4. Immersive teaching method focuses on learning result.

The Three Pillars in TLI Teaching
The biggest difference between TLI and other language institutions is that we have always focused on teaching quality for decades, and our proprietary teaching materials, teaching methods, and top faculty are reasons why we could maintain our high teaching quality.
Unrivaled Golden Ratio Teaching Method
Beginner Class
3/4 of the class focuses on basic pronunciation, spoken expressions, and listening practice and 1/4 of the class focuses on reading and writing practice on sentence structure and vocabulary, all done through interactive learning to build a solid foundation.
Intermediate Class
Emphasis is on a balanced approach to enhance listening, speaking, reading, and writing equally through conversation practice, story telling & writing, and discussions, helping students build their language ability altogether.
Advanced Class
3/4 of the class focuses on reading comprehension and writing & grammar and 1/4 of the class focuses on listening and speaking practice, while monitoring students' learning strategy to adjust teaching methods accordingly and fulfilling students' needs in their professional environment, so you can speak as fluently as a native speaker can.
