General English Courses Overview

The emphasis in our English courses is on verbal communication, though reading and writing is also covered.

Courses are designed for those who wish to improve their knowledge of English. The lessons are in English only and are taught by experienced and fully qualified (e.g. Cambridge CELTA) teachers.

All courses are based on the Common European Framework of Reference for languages (CEFR) which is an internationally recognised guideline used to describe achievements of learners of foreign languages.

Courses are normally 24 hours in duration, usually consisting of 12 sessions of 2 hours, or 8 sessions of 3 hours. The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) programme offers two alternatives of 35 hours.

In order to maximise and enhance your language learning, you will be expected to complete approximately two hours of homework per week.

General English Courses are offered at Pre-Intermediate, Intermediate, Upper Intermediate, Advanced and IELTS levels. All Intermediate and Advanced courses consist of two blocks of 24 hours each. As in all our courses, the focus is on the functional use of language with an emphasis on speaking and understanding. We use a variety of methodologies which are suitable for diverse learning requirements.

Course fee: €360 excluding of the course book. A special rate of €330 is available to post-secondary students. We offer you a "Money back guarantee". If you are not satisfied after the first lesson, you can get your course money back (less €15 administration costs). So, why not give it a try?
