Languages
We currently offer Italian and Spanish foreign language courses.
Starting with Year 1 (Beginners), courses run in the day on weekdays and each level spans one academic year.
You’ll develop essential reading, writing, speaking and listening skills, take part in roleplay activities and also explore the country’s culture and traditions in more detail.
Not sure which level is right for you?
Some of our language courses refer to Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) levels, such as A1 or B2. You can find out about these levels here.
Our course information documents include information on who each course is suitable for, including what knowledge you may need to already know in order to join the course.
You can also call or email us and we’ll talk you through your options, or put you in contact with our tutors if that’s the best course of action. If you want to trial the first session of a course, we can arrange this.
Our courses will provide you with the confidence and skills to communicate in your chosen language and become increasingly fluent as your knowledge improves.
My spoken Italian continues to improve, along with my knowledge of grammar and vocabulary. It is encouraging to make progress, both for using the language on holiday but also as a general boost to my self-esteem. A very enjoyable and well structured course.
The course helps me to develop confidence in speaking Spanish. My new skills are useful on holiday and for engaging with Spanish speaking relatives.
