We offer 7 levels: Beginner, Elementary, Pre-Intermediate, Intermediate, Upper-Intermediate, Advanced and Proficiency.

These tests are given on the first and third Wednesday of each month in two of the four skills: reading/speaking and writing/listening. In addition, teachers give regular grammar and vocabulary assessments. At each level we teach essential grammar and necessary skills and functions. We improve students' writing and reading skills. Students also have a lot of listening and speaking practice. Teachers want students to practise their speaking, give opinions and ask questions.

From 1.30 to 3.30pm Monday to Thursday with Friday options. General English afternoon classes have even more speaking and listening. There is a lot of pair and group work, discussions on varied and interesting topics, games, songs, videos, vocabulary and exercises to improve speaking and listening skills used in everyday English.
