Course Overview
General English course is designed to improve students' skills across the four core areas of speaking, listening, reading and writing.
General English courses are an ideal way to learn to interact with other English speakers for work, travel or to achieve a better job when you return to your home country and can also help you prepare for further study such as IELTS, Cambridge and Academic English courses.
Our students learn in small interactive classes with qualified and TESOL-qualified and experienced teachers.
