What is a conversation course?
A conversation course is a short topic based English course aimed at improving your confidence in speaking.

How will a conversation course help me?
We offer courses at four different bands from Pre-Intermediate to Pre-Advanced.

These courses aim to help you

speak with greater accuracy and fluency in common everyday situations
work on your pronunciation
listen more effectively in English

Our professional teachers make your learning interesting and enjoyable by using a variety of activities with an emphasis on your participation.

What's the connection between Conversation and General English?
General English courses develop your overall command of English in all areas. Conversation courses complement the General English programme by providing lessons which focus specifically on oral communication skills.

Do we use a coursebook?
You do not need to buy a coursebook; we provide all materials.

How will I be assessed?
Each lesson your teacher will assess you on your fluency, accuracy, use of vocabulary and pronunciation. You will receive a grade for each of these based on your performance throughout the course.
