Course description

The aim of the course is to improve English language skills while also encouraging learners to get more involved in their community, access services and understand opportunities.

Our course is tailored to the needs of learners with low levels of English proficiency. As you settle in, you'll soon find yourself immersed in a rich tapestry of modules, each carefully crafted to weave language learning seamlessly into your everyday life

The following topics will be covered in accessible, bitesize sections with full support from a friendly tutor: friends and family, food and shopping, health, the local area, transport, budgeting, life in the UK. Guidance on further learning opportunities, volunteering, and future employment prospects will also be given.

We don't want anything to stand in your way when it comes to bringing Adult learning within reach so if you need anything to support you to achieve your goals then speak to one of our education experts during your enrolment journey. Most of our courses are government funded but if you don't qualify or need.
All of our digital content, teaching and learning activities and assessments are designed to be accessible so if you need any additional support you can discuss this with the education experts during your enrolment journey and we will do all we can to make sure you have optimal access.
