About this course

This course aims to teach beginner English skills to people who speak English as a second language. This course is designed for speakers of other languages who want to improve their English and gain an ESOL Entry level 1 or 2 Reading qualification.  

Our experienced staff will help you to improve your reading, writing and speaking and listening. You will gain confidence in these skills and will then focus on developing your reading, comprehension and understating skills further  in order to then pass a qualification.


You will start by doing an initial assessment, in order to decide with your tutor which level you will be working at from Entry level 1 or Entry Level 2 . You will be assessed near the end of the course and you will then be entered for a C&G ESOL Reading exam towards the end of the course in April 2025.


Please make sure that you can attend the lessons each week before enrolling on the course.
