Approach and methodology

We help you feel comfortable expressing yourself in English and enable you to communicate effectively.

Lessons are student-centred and involve real language in real life situations.

We follow the CEF (Common European Framework) which describes in detail what learners need to do at various levels in order to use a language to communicate.

Assessment
You will progress at your own rate and will be assessed by your teacher in a number of ways throughout the course, including individual counselling and assessment of tasks undertaken in class.

You will be encouraged to take part in your own self-assessment and to work with your teacher to determine how best to progress.

International qualifications
We run exam preparation courses for the University of Cambridge Business English Certificates (Preliminary, Vantage and Higher) and ILEC (International Legal English Certificate).
