Intensive English courses in Leeds

The morning is divided into two parts and two teachers usually share the class. The course is designed to improve students’ abilities to use language accurately and fluently while concentrating on the skills of listening, reading, speaking and writing.

Centre of English Studies gives students the unique opportunity to study in two countries in any of our centres. The Multi-Destination Course gives students the opportunity to live in both England and Ireland and more about the culture, history and social life of both countries.

This course prepares students with the skills and strategies they need to make the transition to college and university. Students are encouraged to develop independence in a range of academic tasks.

COURSE AIMS We help you become a more confident user of the English language with a special focus on functional skills and culture. Of course, you will always work on all four basic language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing.

A Home Language International immersion course means you live the language you are learning and is the fastest, most natural way to learn. You are staying in your teacher’s home, have one-to-one language lessons and continue to use and practise your language skills sharing the daily life of your teacher’s family during meals, conversations, visits and activities as they all take place in the language you are studying.

It is the most effective way to make rapid progress: you live with your teacher who will give you private language lessons and correct you at all times spent with them. It completely immerses you in the language you are learning as you put into practice what you have learnt during your lessons through social interactions and meal time with your host.

LIFESTYLE PROGRAMME Stay with a host who is not necessarily a teacher but who wants to share his/her daily life and culture with you. An immersive experience for those who want to learn exclusively through practice without traditional “sit-down” lessons.

You have arranged your own accommodation and only require private language lessons. The lessons usually take place at the teacher’s home.
