Online English Beginners

Course Overview

This 10-week online English for Beginners course is designed for adults who want to improve their everyday English in a supportive, practical and engaging virtual environment.

Each session runs for three hours and is held live via Zoom, giving students plenty of time to practise and build confidence using English in real-life situations from the comfort of their own home.

The course is suitable for learners from mixed cultural and language backgrounds who have little or no previous English experience. Lessons focus on communication and understanding through conversation, listening, reading and writing tasks.

Our online classes are friendly and interactive, with small group discussions and activities that help you connect with others, learn through participation, and grow from mistakes in a safe space that celebrates diversity.
