ESOL
Our ESOL training course prepares the students to pass the examination at A1/A2/B1 levels. An experienced teacher assesses all students at the time of enrolment. The courses are for those students who have a standard of English below Entry 3. If you are not sure what your level of English is, we will arrange a free diagnostic assessment for you.
