Our General English programmes are designed to improve your ability to communicate in all areas of the language. These courses focus on General Proficiency without leaving the comfort of your own home or office.
Our flexible courses focus on developing the comprehension and speaking skills in practical situations balancing structured study in the main aspects of language: reading, writing, listening and speaking with a wide variety of materials and exercises including roleplays, authentic materials, news articles, documentaries, radio broadcasts, blogs or other social media advertisements.
The CSL offers beginner to mastery levels. These courses are a lighter version of our classroom courses, with small classes taught by our experienced staff.
All new students will be taking a placement test with a CSL teacher. This will determine their level.
