New Cutting Edge is now used for our General English courses. Levels available are:
Level 1 – Starters (Beginners)
Level 2 – Elementary
Level 3 – Pre-Intermediate
Level 4 – Intermediate
Level 5 – Upper-Intermediate
Level 6 – Advanced
Morning and afternoon classes are run in General English. You will be given a syllabus which follows the textbook. There is also room for supplementary material to be inserted and we are currently adding to this. Usually in week 5 or 6 depending on the level, there will be a test and then marks will be submitted during week 6.

Cambridge Preparation Courses in First Certificate in English (CE) and Advanced English CAE

Cambridge First Certificate of English and Advanced English courses are held throughout the year. Students are asked to buy the textbook for this course. At present the New First Certificate Gold is used and it can be bought at Abbeys Language Book Centre in York Street.

IELTS Preparation

IELTS preparation courses are also held and run back to back throughout the year. Students follow a textbook which they are asked to purchase but there is supplementary work given as well. The IELTS courses run for 12 weeks with weekly intakes. There is a morning class and an afternoon class.

English for Academic Purposes

EAP courses run at intervals throughout the year. There is EAP1, EAP2 and EAP3. The EAP 1 course gives direct entry to many colleges (information on our website); the EAP2 course has direct entry to various universities and the EAP3 gives direct entry to universities at post graduate level. Direct entry means that students can enter the universities or colleges without having to gain an IELTS score.
