We are open on the following days for placement testing and registration:

Monday to Friday from 0830 to 1830 and Saturday from 0900 to 1400

  • Primary classes (36 hours per one term)

Children aged 5-8 are highly receptive to developing new language skills. Our teachers are trained in using song, storytelling, educational play, multimedia technology and specially designed learning materials to build your child’s confidence and ability in English. Because children learn better when they enjoy lessons, our activities are varied, challenging, and fun, and designed to maximise each learner’s use of English. Lessons are designed and structured so that all children can follow activities and instructions easily.

  • Junior classes (36 hours per one term)

As with Primaries, our Junior classes for children aged 8-11 focus on developing language skills (speaking, writing, reading, listening) and language systems (grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation) using contexts, activities and materials that are accessible, enjoyable, and appropriate to the age and level of the young learner. And as with all British Council courses for young learners, our lessons are designed to develop each student’s understanding of sharing, and valuing others.

  • Senior classes (48 hours per one term)

As young people build skills and confidence in using English from ages 11-14, British Council courses provide important development in fluency by encouraging learners to complete communicative tasks in speaking and writing, reading and listening. We develop accuracy by using multimedia tools and specially designed learning materials to focus on grammatical structures, pronunciation, and new vocabulary, while keeping lessons interesting and enjoyable with materials and activities that are relevant to young people.

  • Young Adults classes (48 hours per one term)

Young people aged 14-17 look forward to enhancing their adult lives with the advantages that English language skills can bring them. British Council Young Adult courses move young people towards internationally recognised English language certification with lessons, materials and activities that are motivating, challenging, and engaging for teenage learners. We develop skills and confidence to use English in real-world contexts, the study skills needed to ensure future academic success, and our cultural contacts offer young people the opportunity to engage with high achievers in science and the arts.
