In the second lesson you will be focussing on 21st century skills to build your confidence and develop fluency. This includes topic based project work, conversation, critical thinking exercises, communication, collaboration, team work, drama, culture exchange, and much more. This lesson will give you a lot of freedom to express yourself in English and be creative with what you have learnt. 

Country & Culture

Twice a week in the afternoons, our Country & Culture lessons will give students a chance to practise their English skills as they explore different aspects of English history and culture.
