French, German, Spanish, Mandarin Chinese, and Italian
These modules are designed for students who wish to learn a new language from scratch, enabling you to develop the basic language skills required to survive a trip abroad. Learning is taught through role-play, workshops and short conversations, using videos and authentic reading and listening materials. Mandarin Chinese, Italian, French, Spanish, French and German are also available at ‘post-beginners’, the level between beginners and intermediate.
French, German, Spanish, and English
Classes for intermediate speakers are designed for students who already have a GCSE or equivalent in the language. Participation in classroom conversations can help develop strong foundations in your chosen language. The course focuses on listening, speaking, reading, writing and grammar, and there is also the opportunity to learn more about the culture associated with the language you are learning.
French, German, Spanish and English.
Advanced speaker courses are designed for students who already have an A-Level or equivalent in their chosen language. This course can build confidence in your language skills, providing you with the opportunity to develop autonomous communication. Most sessions at advanced level will be conducted in the foreign language, and an emphasis will be placed on using the correct register when speaking and writing.
