General English

What is General English?
General English focuses on developing the language and skills necessary for effective everyday communication across a wide range of different contexts and situations.

How will a General English course help me?
We offer courses across these language bands:

There are 4 levels within each band. If you study with us continuously over the course of a year, you can expect to complete one and a half language bands. Each course has clear learning aims your teacher will help you work towards, giving you lots of opportunity to polish your existing skills and learn and develop new ones.

(please view the Common European Framework) for more information.

Our professional teachers make your learning interesting and enjoyable by using a variety of activities with an emphasis on your participation.   
We use a wide variety of up-to-date teaching resources including modern course books, authentic materials and computer-based activities.   

Your teacher will talk to you about your progress and advise you on improving your English language skills. You can view the levels chart.
