After The Course
What Will I Learn
Depending on your starting level (which will be decided through an initial assessment), you will focus on Speaking and Listening, Reading and Writing skills throughout the course of the programme in preparation for exams to demonstrate your capability with these skills.
We will be following a set course book which will be introduced to you at the beginning of the course and it is recommended that you purchase the course book where possible, as this will also help with independent learning. Vocabulary, grammar and punctuation are key skills to master when learning a new language so these will also be embedded into the classes.
