Our General English Courses help you improve your language skills for communication in everyday English.
We have courses from Elementary (A2) to Advanced (C2) English. The courses help you improve reading, writing, speaking and listening. You will also work on grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and learning strategies - how to work on your own.
We use books, CDs and videos and communication games. Regular fieldtrips are arranged for students to experience Scotland’s culture and history and to give you material for writing presentations and reports.
We will check your level on the first day of your studies.
You can start on any Monday and the minimum duration is 1 week.
