You will take a placement test before you start to determine which level you will be placed in, from Beginner (A1) to Advanced (C1).

You will study a balanced mix of skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking) and systems (grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation) with an emphasis on practical, everyday communication.

We carry out weekly tests to make sure that you are progressing and we do regular checks to see if you are meeting your goals. Our teachers work hard to make sure that you are being challenged and are that you are improving your own weak areas.

We make our lessons fun, interesting, and useful. We give all students the chance to suggest lesson topics, classroom activities, and areas of language to study, meaning that there is always something to look forward to learning.
