Course Info
These are group courses which acknowledge individual needs. The content is academically sound and will promote
and lead towards long term aims with the language. The teaching,
by native speaker teachers, will be communicative, intimate,
fun and will engage and stretch the students. Although the
emphasis will be on speaking and listening grammar will be
included and taught in context. Our courses are monitored
throughout, feedback gathered from students at the mid and end of each course (together with any direct contact) and acted upon by Cactus Language Training. More on course outlines
