Morning sessions are a combination of language learning (grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation) and other more interactive lessons and are delivered by two different teachers per group. The daily afternoon session "Active English" includes sessions in Drama, Sport, Cookery, Arts & Crafts and Music and gives our students a great opportunity to learn English whilst enjoying a stimulating activity. Students are tested on arrival and placed in one of the standard five levels of class according to age and level of English. The average group size is 15. All materials are provided. At the end of the course parents are sent a report on their child's progress and students are presented with a certificate of course completion.
