Standard General English Course


The Standard General English Course takes place every morning from Monday to Friday, leaving you free every afternoon to join the Social Programme or spend time on self study.

Your morning lessons are divided into two parts and you will usually be taught by two different teachers.

In the first lesson the teacher concentrates on improving your accuracy, focusing primarily on grammar, reading and writing. The course-book is the basis for much of this lesson, with supplementary material taken from workbooks and other resource material.

The second session concentrates on improving your overall communicative proficiency and fluency, focusing on your listening, speaking and vocabulary and consolidating the first part of the morning. You will also be able to work on specific pronunciation difficulties and improve the language you will use in real-life situations.

Students taking this course for longer periods (8 - 25 weeks) will have monthly assesments to make sure their are constantly improving. Our Head of Quality and Delivery arranges a weekly meeting time and place where all students can come and discuss any questions or problems.


Intensive General English Course 


On the Intensive General English Course, you will follow the same programme as the Standard General English Course in the mornings, plus three afternoon classes on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons, which gives you the opportunity to improve your communicative proficiency through discussions, topical debates, authentic materials and video.

The main objective of the Intensive General English course is to develop communication skills at an accelerated rate and to improve your competence in using English in everyday situations.

Our modern teaching methods and use of supplementary materials give you the best opportunity to build your language skills and maximise the benefits of the time you spend with us.

During the summer months (June - September) we also run special Conversation Classes that are aimed to improve students oral capabilities. This course runs on the same timetable and price as the Intensive Course but the afternoon classes are dedicated to Conversation!

Please make sure and contact us if you need more information on this or any of our courses!


Combination Course 


On our Combination Course, you will follow the Standard Course in the mornings and you will also have two afternoons of individual lessons. These are designed to meet your individual needs and requirements and offer you the ideal opportunity to work on specific language problem areas with your own teacher.

During the first individual lesson, you will complete a Needs Analysis Form with your teacher, in which you can highlight particular areas to work on. This enables your teacher to plan your lessons according to your specific needs and ensures you get the most from your lessons. 

Extra Learning is able to cover many areas in the 1 to 1 classes. You as the client dictate what you wish to study and improve on. It can be your general English language level, oral fluency and pronunciation, English for Law, English for Marketing, English for Aviation personnel, English for Medicine or just helping you get ahead with what you have already learned!

This is increasingly popular at Extra Learning as it focuses on the individual needs, requirements and weaknesses of the client.

Many clients on the Combination course actually increase the 5 hours Individual tuition per week to 10!
