The Intensive English course at Yorkshire College is a full-time programme running from morning until afternoon, designed for students who want to improve their English quickly. It combines the General Morning programme with a choice of one booster class in the afternoon.
In the General Morning part, you will join a group class for three lessons each day. This section focuses on developing all four key English skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. You will use course books like Cambridge Empower, Pearson Speak Out, and Oxford English File to build your vocabulary and grammar, helping you use English more effectively.
After lunch, you will attend booster classes that last for 1.5 lessons each day. These classes cover various subjects based on your needs and interests, such as IELTS preparation, Academic English, Business English, Conversation Skills, and Writing. The specific subjects may change depending on what students request.
Every Friday, you will take a test on what you have learned in the General Morning classes. Although there are no tests for the booster classes, you may complete presentations, reports, or other tasks to show what you have learned. This course provides both broad and focused English language practice.
