Communicative English

This course is designed to help you activate and improve your English knowledge by focusing on spoken fluency and natural language. You will learn how to express yourself better in lessons covering a wide range of engaging topics.

21st Century Skills

In the second lesson you will be focussing on 21st century skills to build your confidence and develop fluency. This includes topic based project work, conversation, critical thinking exercises, communication, collaboration, team work, drama, culture exchange, and much more. This lesson will give you a lot of freedom to express yourself in English and be creative with what you have learnt.

Country & Culture

Twice a week in the afternoons, our Country & Culture lessons will give students a chance to practise their English skills as they explore different aspects of English history and culture. These lessons will also provide more information about the destinations students will visit on their weekly trips, allowing the students to benefit even more from their time at these beautiful and historic locations.
