Course Overview

We offer a 25 week English language course where you will learn basic language and structures to be able to do things you need to do on a daily basis as soon as possible. This course includes a combination of English language tutorials, conversation classes, and social/cultural activities. On passing the level you will receive an English Talks Certificate of Achievement. The course is designed for younger learners (16+) or adults who want to use English accurately and fluently. Grammar and vocabulary are taught and explained thoroughly, and all four skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing are developed systematically. The course combines effective methods of language teaching with additional exercises, real interviews, pronunciation tips and a writing guide.

Course Overview

At the end of the academic year, you will sit an internal exam and external one e.g. Cambridge or TIE. The exam you are going to sit will be discussed with you at the start of your course. Some specific exam preparation classes are included in the period of 25 weeks. You will also receive a certificate on passing the internal exam successfully.
