This course does not lead to a formal qualification.

You’ll learn in a fun and supportive environment through a variety of engaging activities.

The tutor will use a range of resources (videos, games, role-plays, and handouts) to supplement the course book.

You will be able to practise using the language in real-life situations through fun and engaging role plays and lively group discussions.
