Intensive English

Discover new English language and academic study skills this summer

The Intensive and Examination English course is aimed at the more serious student. It combines integrated English Language skills, academic study skills, and examination practice with a range of activities and excursions.

Lessons focus on:

• accuracy and fluency skills: grammar, listening, speaking, reading and writing activities, conversation practice, role plays, debates, discussions, presentations
• English for Academic Purposes and Examination skills: note-taking, research, IELTS and Cambridge Examination preparation

Your teachers have high expectations and encourage you to work hard both inside and outside the classroom, with regular homework tasks and weekly progress tests.

Note: one lesson=55 minutes

Digital Books are part of the Intensive English curriculum therefore it is essential that students on this course bring a windows or apple tablet or laptop to make the most of their learning experience*.

* The eBook system is not device-specific and will work on any internet connected device with a modern web browser. The absolute minimum size of screen is 7 inch but 10 inch is far better as it affords a greater working area. Mobile phones are not suitable as they are simply too small. Android or iPad tablets will work fine as will windows and apple laptops. The software works best with the google chrome web browser.
