B1, B2, C1+
Our main English mini group course is General English for Work and Life (GEWL) and students can study from 60 hours to a whole academic year and finish one level in that time.
Mini groups are for a maximum of four students and are designed to be either delivered either face to face or online using video meeting platforms such as Zoom, Teams etc. However, it is one mode or the other. So for example, we do not offer the option to join a face to face group by video
As all our teachers are native speakers, we try to use the target language as much as possible in the class and the classes are highly participatory.
To complete one level involves 30 weeks of classroom study (usually 1 x 15 week course in the Autumn/Winter + 1 x 15 week course in Winter/Spring).
At the end of each level (B1-C2), all students have the chance to take an internationally recognised and certified test from Language Cert. At lower levels students take the ILS end of level test.
All ILS courses are linked to the Common European Framework of levels (A1-C2)
