Summer English Language Courses for EU Students:
ESOL International - pre-intermediate and intermediate English courses. Great for college/University students who need to improve their English for entry to a UK institution, or simply to better their job prospects, or simply for a fun and educational summer break!
Course Outline:
There would be 12-13 hours per week of teaching time, with a choice of either a mid-moring/afternoon class and an evening class each day for a total of 8 weeks. This makes up more than 600 hours of ESOL teaching. We will teach pre-intermediate and intermediate level classes with an option to take a Pearson's Academic exam, EDI exam, or to receive a college certificate of the level achieved at the end of the course. We study reading, writing, listening, and speaking in a fun and creative way, while teaching you proper, useful English grammar and vocabulary.

The fee for the intensive 8 week course is 800 pounds, but if you wish to do a shorter course with no exam at the end to simply improve your English for personal reasons then that can be arranged on application.
