Part Time EFL - English as a Foreign Language: Evening (4 hours a week) (18 years and above) - Multiple Start Dates

Our English as a Foreign Language classes are offered at all study levels from Elementary to Advanced (subject to numbers). We offer daytime and evening study options - please see timetables below. The minimum level for our classes is Elementary (A2 - CEFR - Common European Framework of Reference).

As a new applicant you will be asked to take a placement test (free of charge) to assess your level of English and identify the best level of study to suit your needs. For more information please telephone on 020 8268 2999 or email: FILE.FIL@stcg.ac.uk.

We offer general English classes which will develop your English Language skills using speaking, reading, writing and listening. We have a student-centred approach where the students are at the heart of what we do.

We also have Cambridge Exam preparatory courses which focus on the language and skills you need to pass these well-respected and world-wide recognised exams. (Subject to numbers).

Course objectives: Our General English courses will prepare you to communicate with confidence in real life situations - whether for work, study, travel or simply to talk to friends and family. Our enthusiastic and friendly teachers will use a variety of teaching methods, latest course books and materials, such as newspapers and the internet which will give you the skills and confidence to thrive. Lessons are fun and challenging so you will make progress quickly and enjoy your time in the classroom!

Students normally remain at the same level for two terms. Progression to the next level depends upon success in the end of term test and good attendance. Progression onto a higher level class is at the discretion of the tutor. Please make sure you have discussed with your tutor which course is suitable for the coming term and agree that it is the correct level. Student reports and references are available upon request.

Course fee: £540 (Day), £360 (Evening).

Payment: We do not charge a registration fee. Full fees must be paid at enrolment by cash, cheque or card. There is no option for instalment payments. No fee waivers or concessions are available. Places are non-transferable. The tuition fee, once paid, is non-refundable and non-transferable. This means that if you decide to leave your course for whatever reason, you will not receive a refund.

EFL Mission Statement

Our central mission is to create a nurturing and positive learning environment where students are given the opportunity to develop the full use of their language skills and immerse themselves in British life, education and culture. We aim to do this by:

• Continuously developing and adapting the syllabus to cater to the needs of the students.

• Integrating students into college life by encouraging them to make full use of the on-site facilities.

• Enabling students to take ownership of their own individual learning goals and show them ways of achieving them. This will be done through one to one tutorials and smart targets set and discussed with each student.

• Ensuring that a student's stay is both beneficial and enjoyable.

• Encouraging respect and provide British Values.

• Promoting cultural awareness and understanding.

• Enabling students to access further and higher education opportunities.

• Offering support and skills needed to gain employment though our Student Support.
