Full time course

The focus of the morning classes is on the development and improvement of General English and language competencies as determined by the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR).  You will learn English through a balance of activities aimed at grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening. Throughout your morning programme, there will be a strong emphasis on English for effective communication.  Homework and class tests will be set at regular intervals every week in order to assess and monitor your progress.  Also, your teacher will write regular reports to keep you informed of your strengths and areas for development.

You will be given an initial assessment to determine which class is most suitable to develop your level and understanding of English. The initial assessment will include a grammar test, writing test and speaking test. We reserve the right to place you in a class which we deem appropriate for your level.
