We assess English literacy skills and provide solutions for second-language users
Why are we passionate about raising English proficiency levels? Because, at our core, we care about opening doors to learning- and job opportunities. Discover our unique English Literacy Solutions.
Our journey started from the foundations laid by Hough & Horne in the early 1980s. Kaleidoprax specialises in optimising English communication channels in organisations.
Accurate data collection informs efficient English literacy solution design. We use ELSA (English Literacy Skills Assessment), our standardised measurement tool, to determine current skill levels. We utilise the ELSA results to shape multi-tiered solutions to meet the needs of our clients.
Kaleidoprax accomplishes this by comparing ideal skill levels for optimum career, academic and workplace performance in English with the measured levels to identify the gaps.
A Pathway to Employability and Trainability
Improved English proficiency is a gateway for non-mother tongue users, essential in achieving equality and better economic opportunities.
Bridging the English Communication Gap
Beyond Social Navigators
Bridge the gap between social expectations and workplace demands. We empower South Africans to excel in professional environments where English is the language of business.
From our data, we conclude that most South Africans function as Social Navigators—equated to skills mastered after 7 or 8 years of formal language learning—where English is the expected language of use. The disparity is that professional environments require Social Navigators to function beyond the social expectations of language. In an ideal world, they would perform better in their home language, but since English is the language of business, better outcomes depend on raising English proficiency.
Why do we care
Raising English literacy levels provides people with a passport to new possibilities.
We believe in the GREAT ENGLISH ADVENTURE
