What will I learn?
In the morning, you will join a general English class appropriate to your level to ensure that you continue to receive the language input you need to make steady progress with your current ability. You will learn the grammar and vocabulary necessary for you to progress in your English using a tried and tested syllabus, adapted where necessary for the individual needs of the students in the class.
Then, in the afternoon you will join the dedicated 30+ module where you will study with over-30s of intermediate level and above. As well as improving your language skills, you will engage in a range of important topics from British politics to current affairs and arts, to name a few. The syllabus of the class is negotiated for a more personalised approach, which allows students some input on what they wish to cover week by week.
