| Who is this course for? | Students who are looking to improve their level whilst at the same time having enough time to explore and discover Cape Town. | |
| Syllabus | The course covers all general areas of language learning including listening, reading, writing and conversation classes.
All teachers are CELTA qualified and the majority of our teachers have many years experience in teaching different nationalities, this helps to ensure that courses remain fun and varied.
Classes are made much more effective by the mixture of cultures and identities with teachers only communicating in English. This guarantees students make progress and are more likely to continue practising outside of class. |
