Discovery Programme
Social Programme
● 15 hours of tuition per week
● CEFR A2–C1, with students placed by levels
● Maximum 18 students per class
● Mixed-nationality classes upon availability
● Course materials and end-of-course certificate included
Our General English programme builds the language students need to use English
confidently outside the classroom. Lessons are interactive and topic-led, taught by
qualified teachers using materials written for young learners rather than adapted
from adult coursebooks.
By the end of a two-week course, students can expect to:
● hold a conversation on familiar topics with greater fluency and less
hesitation
● give a short prepared presentation to their class
● work confidently in a group with students from other countries
● identify their own strengths and next steps, set out in an end-of-course
report
Students take a placement test before arrival and a short assessment on the first
morning, so classes are grouped by level from day one.
Lessons are taught on weekdays, between Monday and Friday.
● Morning lessons: 08:50 to 12:30
● Afternoon lessons: 13:50 to 17:30
