General English Courses
General English is the perfect course for students who want to improve their general English skills. This includes reading, writing, speaking, listening, grammar, and vocabulary. Our General English courses are suitable for students over the age of 16 who would like to improve their use of English. Students can do this whilst living, studying or working in the United Kingdom.
The maximum number of students per class is 16, but on average, there are between 8-10 students in the class.
Our teachers care about your progress. When you arrive, you take a test and you are put into the correct level. On the first day, you will discuss your aims and targets with the Director of Studies. You will do a revision test every week, and discuss your progress with your teacher.
General English Combinations
If you would like to focus on specific areas to improve, you can combine your general English classes with a Booster Class. Booster Classes are personalised and can be very useful. You can choose your Booster classes and prioritise them based on the needs identified by you and your teacher. Therefore, if you feel that your pronunciation is a weakness, you can add a Pronunciation Booster to your Standard course to help you improve in this area.
Our Booster classes are offered every day. You can choose one or two Booster classes to help you succeed in achieving your goal and meeting your needs quickly and effectively.
You can study more intensively and combine General English with other courses such as Business English, Exam Preparation courses or English for Specific Purposes. Or, if you prefer to relax a little you can combine our General English Courses with a Creative workshop which will allow you to practise the vocabulary you learn outside of the classroom.
