Course Outline

Refresher courses are 10 hours long and take place over one weekend, with 5 hours tuition Saturday and the same on Sunday. They are a great way to refresh previous language skills, which you may not have used for a while, or brush up ahead of a trip abroad or one of our other evening & part-time courses.

Refresher courses are available in two levels: Elementary Refresher and Intermediate Refresher.

You can follow-up your Refresher course with one of our 10-week, 5-week Fast Track or 1-week Intensive courses across the UK, or a full-immersion language course abroad, if you want a more in-depth preparation or to carry on learning.

What will I learn?

These are intended as a guide only and our teachers may at times adapt the course content to suit the specific level, aims and interests of the class.
