Course overview
Course description
This Pre-Entry Beginners English ESOL Conversation Class is ideal for non-native speakers with little or no English language experience. Held on Tuesday mornings in Brighton, East Sussex, the course is offered in partnership with the Hangleton & Knoll Project and is led by our wonderful and experienced teacher, Jane. The class provides a warm and welcoming environment, perfect for those beginning their English language journey.
The course focuses on developing essential skills in speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Through interactive activities, group discussions, and role-plays, students will practice everyday conversations, build basic vocabulary, and improve pronunciation. Speaking exercises are designed to help learners gain confidence in expressing themselves in common situations, while listening activities focus on understanding simple spoken English.
In addition to conversation practice, reading sessions introduce basic texts such as signs, short stories, and simple articles, helping students enhance their comprehension and build their reading skills. Writing tasks will guide learners in forming simple sentences, filling out forms, and writing short notes or messages.
Jane’s patient and friendly teaching style ensures that each student feels comfortable and confident as they progress. The course is student-centred, allowing learners to practice at their own pace while steadily building the skills needed for effective communication in everyday life. Join us
