  • a combination of learning styles
  • individual attention from your own Personal Language trainer
  • the stimulation of learning with other students

Course structure
The programme consists of 20 lessons per week:

  • 15 in small groups (max. 12); and
  • 5 in private lessons (One-to-One)

Group classes focus on developing greater accuracy and greater fluency in the use of English. Lessons incorporate the four skills - reading, writing, listening and speaking - as well as the building-blocks of the language - grammar and vocabulary.

Private One-to-One lessons provide individual attention from your own Personal Language trainer. This is an excellent way to focus specifically on making that extra progress – it might just make the difference!
