About our courses
The English study courses are based in Leamington Spa, Stratford-upon-Avon or can be taught on site at the client’s office or home. The intensity and structure of the programme is dictated by the client. All courses are available throughout the year. The programmes include tuition in all four-study skills; writing, reading, listening and speaking, but tend to focus on speaking and listening. One to one tuition allows individual attention producing faster and more effective progress. Fewer lessons are often required compared with group tuition. Students can study at their own speed and focus on their own personal language needs. All programme costs include free study materials.
