Welcome to British Council Rwanda. Please browse our list of services and projects below.

Exams

Exams: we are the Rwanda base for IELTS examinations, we coordinate ACCA exams, and we invigilate university exams for Rwandese applicants to UK-based universities, such as University of Leicester – School of Management Exams, Cambridge International College etc.

Take IELTS

English

Learn English: Our Teaching Centre offers general English courses to adult learners as well as IELTS preparation courses. We work with corporates, ministries, donors, NGO’s, the private sector, and the public.
English Development Projects: we run Learn English Newspaper Articles in local newspapers and magazines including the New Times, Umvaho, The Oasis Gazette and the Service Mag. We also hosted the 2010 English for Development in Africa conference.
English Language Radio: our Teach English, Learn English and Obla Air Learn English Series are broadcast on Radio Rwanda, Radio Flash, Radio 10, Contact FM, Ishtango Star Radio and Radio Izuba.
Other media projects: include the re-recording of the Teach English Radio series to appeal more to local listeners. Our re-recording now includes Rwandese narrators and traditional Rwandan music. This programme has been distributed to all the main teaching centres in Rwanda in all four districts, care of the Teacher Service Commission.
