A clear language component throughout the academic course is designed to help you develop fluency dramatically and attain an in-depth sensitivity to the cultural and social nuances of the English language which is impossible to achieve on a short course or by studying in your own country.

Your own individual study plan will depend on your particular needs and interests, level of English, start date and course duration. You will work on vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation and the four key skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing, as well as effective learning strategies that put you in control of your own progress.

A minimum level of English is required for the Academic Year Programme.
So that you gain the most from your chosen course you will have a full placement test on arrival. This will ensure that you will be placed in the class most suitable to your own level. Once you reach an Intermediate level, you can mix and match modules according to your level of English and length of stay. Subjects and outcomes may vary according to location and time of the year.
