A choice of two programmes

1. An integrated programme

This means that your group is included as part of the usual programme, with other students from all over the world.

  • Tuition from Monday to Friday
  • 4 to 5 hours per day
  • 23 hours per week for the number of weeks required
  • Each week there is an additional activity available outside class time. Students are encouraged to take part in these activities
  • Access is provided outside class time to the Independent Learning Centre and the Language Laboratory.

2. A special group programme

This means that your group may have either:

  • a General English class in the morning and special activities in the afternoon
    or
  • a day of tuition followed by a day of special activities
    or
  • A combination of an integrated programme and a specific group programme

The content would include elements of the integrated programme plus an activities programme as chosen by the client.
