You’ll learn about towns, cities and places, important people and about festivals and celebrations too. You’ll also learn about some key points in history and about traditions and will have the opportunity to share your opinions on these too, using this as an opportunity to practice using different tenses.

You’ll be in a small, friendly class and you’ll have lots of opportunities to practice speaking and listening in English and to further develop both your reading and your writing skills.
