Certificate in English
In the Certificate in English programme, students will build a solid foundation of English skills they can use to communicate in vocational, casual and academic environments. We emphasise speaking, writing, reading, and listening, as well as grammar. Classes are designed so that students have many opportunities to communicate with their classmates.
There are two options of delivery modes – depending on student’s choice:
1. Classroom and Activity based learning (full day programme): 3 hours of lessons, with 3 hours of activities and guided sessions in the Independent Learning Centre daily
2. Classroom-only based learning (half day programme): 3 hours of lessons daily
Full-Time: 15 months
