Academic Year Courses

11Price & BookingAcademic Year course (6 or 9 month course)

The Academic Year Course is for students who wish to maximise their English language learning experience by living in an English-speaking country for a long period of time. Students follow this course  because they want to improve their level of English holistically (across the four skills) for work purposes, for study purposes or because they need to obtain an internationally – recognised certificate at the end of the course to gain admission into university.

Is this the right course for you?

By following this course you will:

  • Improve your fluency
  • Improve your accuracy
  • Improve your general level of English across the four skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing
  • Prepare for future work or study by improving  academic skills such as note-taking, writing reports etc
  • Become an independent learner
  • Enjoy a rich and multicultural experience as you study with students from many different backgrounds
  • Prepare for an internationally-recognised exam of your choice, such as IELTS, TOEFL iBT  or one of the Cambridge Main Suite of Examinations (optional)

What will you study?

The Academic Year course focuses on developing your level of English across the four skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing) so that you can communicate more effectively and more easily with other speakers of English. You are taught study skills and how to become an independent learner.
