Our English Course includes:

• Online testing before students' arrival
• 15 hours of English lessons in the classroom
• Maximum class size: 20 students

Since students are accepted and taught in closed groups, it is very important that group enrolments are done with students of same or similar levels of English language proficiency.

Our Mini Stay Programmes feature a range of options for social activities and games, which can be tailored to the group’s preferences. The selection of activities will depend on the group's profile, the general programme, and the amount of free time available. These activities are designed to ensure an engaging and enjoyable experience for all participants, complementing their academic programme and enhancing their stay.
