West George College is a privately run college in Glasgow, Scotland that offers courses to international student from all around the world. We are currently looking for students from within the EU who wish to improve their English Language skills with our intensive ESOL summer school. We are running the course for 8 weeks in the summer, during June, July and August with a choice of evening and day classes to suit you. This class will suit people who simply wish to improve their English while enjoy the sights and culture of one of the UK's greatest cities, or college and university students from within the EU who need to improve their English for educational or employability reasons. More than anything, we provide a fun, friendly, cheap course taught by highly educated, TEFL certified tutors, with an exam and certificate at the end of your studies.
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. All you need to do is fill out an application and have a valid EU passport.
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. In that case, each week you study would cost 100 pounds. 3 weeks would be the minimum you could study for and 8 weeks the maximum. There will be a 15 pounds admin fee to process your application.
