Summer Language & Culture Programme
You are here: Home » Courses » English Courses for Adults »
As a British Council accredited School we espouse the same aspirations for young people: We believe in the potential of young people to create a better world. Inspired by this optimism, we are positive and creative and we focus on what works.
This course has been designed to welcome young adults who want to experience aspects of local city life and British culture. The programme combines formal classes of 15hrs English followed by a range of different activities to introduce students to this region of Kent, known as the Garden of England, and to contemporary British life: its history, values and evolving multi-cultural customs.
