Where do lessons take place?

Will I need study materials?

For courses such as IELTS/ TOEFL/ OET etc we supply all your study materials.

How quickly will I make progress?

English and European  language courses are designed ensuring progression in line with the Common European Framework, which aims to complete each level in 4 weeks.

We appreciate that everyone learns at different speed, therefore we offer a number of other opportunities to learn, e.g. conversation classes and one-to-one tuition.

For exam Preparation, Voice and Accent, and other courses the duration is designed to offer maximum results in the shortest time possible. 

Is there an exam at the end of the course?

No. The focus of our courses is on improving your ability and achieving your goals within the duration of your training  Our teachers and teaching methods allow students make good progress at their own pace, so there is no exam but a Course Completion  Certificate will be issued at the end of the training stating the level you have attended.

What if I select the wrong level?

A trainer will assess your level and needs before starting any course with us and make any adjustment necessary to your schedule. If necessary you can switch to a different level when available.

Our teachers are trained to maximise your exposure to the target language during your lessons, in most cases this will be English.They will predominantly use the target language and encourage you to do so as well.
