General & Intensive English Courses for Adults (15+)

You can start your English language course any Monday (except total beginners). Our General and Intensive English courses include lessons that build on the four language skills – writing, reading, speaking, and listening – as well as focus on grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary. The General English Course has 15 hours of teaching timetabled per week, and the Intensive English Course has an extra 6 hours of negotiated syllabus, totalling 21 hours.

Cambridge Examination Courses

You can use your time with us to gain an internationally recognised language qualification. If you plan to enter higher education and widen your career prospects, Cambridge English Examination Courses are incredibly important! We can prepare you for the examination you wish to take. We’ll help you gain the skills, techniques and confidence to pass.

We have several 4-week course dates available with preparation for the B2 First: Cambridge English and C1 Advanced: Cambridge English exams.

One-to-One Courses

You may have specific English needs, for example for your job or to build up confidence when you’re speaking. We can help you with this by offering one-to-one lessons with one of our experienced teachers. In these lessons, you tell us what you would like to learn, and we’ll teach you.
