Most of our courses are twice a week- 5 hours a week. Our classes take place in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Our students take exams in January, March, and the beginning of July. If you can commit to 5 hours a week you will be able to complete one level of ESOL in one academic year. To successfully complete the course, you must arrive on time for each lesson and attend at least 80% of the lessons. You will be expected to regularly complete homework. Although the classes are face to face your teacher will also use Google Classroom, Google Meet, and other websites to help you access additional online learning. If you are not confident studying online, your teacher will help you and you can attend an induction course to learn how to study online. Please speak to an Enrolment Advisor for information or advice about booking an initial assessment. What are the benefits of attending?  increased confidence to use English in everyday situations  develop the skills to support your children with their studies  develop employability skills  gain a qualification  progress onto higher level ESOL courses or other courses

Before you start an ESOL course, you need to complete an initial assessment. When you come to an enrolment session a teacher will speak to you and you will do some reading and writing to find out your level.
