This course is for adults with special educational needs and learning disabilities, including learners who communicate non-verbally, to help build confidence in communicating in all sorts of everyday situations. We will practise different ways of communicating with each other, including speaking, listening, gestures, body language, and using pictures or symbols. You will learn how to participate in everyday conversations, making choices, sharing ideas and understanding and connecting with others. You will learn simple English skills throughout the course to improve your reading, writing, and understanding key words. The tutor will use Makaton signs as well as spoken words to help everyone learn. Activities will be practical, fun, and supportive.
