Most of your learning will be by following exercises in a series of workbooks but there is always a tutor on hand to help you when you get stuck or when you need more explanation. To get you started, we begin by booking you in for an Induction. This is normally a 2-hour group session where you find out about the centre and the centre procedures before completing an English language assessment and then enrolling onto the course. After the induction, you need to attend a minimum of two 2-hour sessions each week.
