We offer ESOL courses from Pre-Entry to Level 2.
To ensure you're on the right course, you'll need to take an English language assessment before you start. We'll help you find the perfect level for you.
If your teacher thinks you're ready, you'll take an Entry 3 reading assessment at the end of the course. This assessment is accredited by an external awarding organisation. Successful completion can lead to further ESOL study or other courses to help you achieve your goals.
We are committed to providing a supportive and welcoming learning environment. Our tutors are experienced in teaching English to adults and are here to help you succeed.
Please note that tutors may occasionally be changed at short notice. While teaching styles may vary, we ensure consistent quality across all of our courses. For this reason, a change of tutor does not qualify for a refund.
