Accredited course in Leeds 12

This is an intensive one-year City & Guilds ESOL skills for life course broken into three distinct and stand-alone modules which lead to a qualification in Reading, Writing and Speaking and Listening. Students will develop these skills throughout the year that enable them to meet the demands of the modern world using English language.

The qualification is intended for anyone whose first language is not English who want to improve their understanding of written or spoken English. This might be improve work opportunities (or get a job), prepare for further study, access public services or just to function more effectively in an English-speaking environment.

The course will be split into three distinct units which can be awarded as qualifications in their own right or as a ‘full mode’ qualification.

These are:

1. Speaking and listening

2. Reading to obtain information

3. Writing to convey information

The qualification is available at five levels. Entry Level 1, Entry Level 2, Entry Level 3, Level 1 and Level 2.

While studying students will be expected to attend weekly 3 hour lessons and complete some further independent study.

The running of this course is dependent on enough people registering to join. There are still some spaces available.
