English Language Courses

Study an English Course in the UK

English language courses help international students gain entry onto a vocational course, foundation programme or undergraduate degree. Courses can last from as little as one week or up to a year, and teaching incorporates the key skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening.

Study can be available at your chosen university on a pre-sessional basis, but if you decide to study English at an English Language School, it is important to pick a fully accredited centre approved by the UK Government and Education authorities.
