LILA* College

🚀 Repost from ICEF Digital! Our Director, Leanne Linacre, recently joined a panel discussion on 'Balancing Automation with Authenticity in Student Recruitment'. Leanne highlighted a critical point: while automation can streamline processes, there's a real danger of it steering students based on limited data like background, nationality, or gender. A human, on the other hand, sees the 'whole student'—their unique aspirations, talents, and potential—and helps negate bias. At LILA*, we embrace technology to enhance the student experience, but the *human touch* remains at the heart of everything we do. ❤️ Check out ICEF's post to learn more about this important conversation! #Studentrecruitment #Edtech #Inclusiveeducation

Our Director and co-founder, Leanne Linacre was busy flying the LILA* flag at ICEF Berlin over the weekend!

At LILA* College, we believe that learning goes beyond the classroom! On a regular basis our students step out of their usual lessons and work on projects together. This time they were tasked with the challenging question 'What should the 18th United Nations Sustainability Goal be? 🌍🙌 This project encouraged them to think critically, collaborate, and present innovative solutions to complex global issues, all while actively using the English they've been learning in class. The teamwork and creativity we saw was nothing short of inspiring! It’s amazing to see students building confidence in their ideas and presentations, supporting one another, and growing as global citizens. Well done to everyone involved! We couldn’t be prouder of the hard work, dedication, and energy that went into this project. Keep up the fantastic work! 💡👏 David Game College | Leanne Linacre | Victoria Bligh | Tom Davis | Stacey McGee | Jim Pearson | Laurie Daley | Keerttiga Ravi | Vinod Bansee | Mark Haynes-Kershaw #StudyinLiverpool #LearnEnglishinLiverpool #ALevels #UniversityFoundationProgramme
