The course aims to strengthen English language skills in everyday activities and to develop children's critical thinking skills.

The aim of the programme is to help the ambitious student gain a proficient use of the English language in the intellectual context of their academic studies: building their critical thinking skills, their ability to join a debate and generally express themselves with conviction and eloquence in English. Progress will depend on their level at the beginning of the course, which is open to pupils from A1 to C1 and will also depend on the length of stay.  For a short course of fewer than 5 weeks A2 is the recommended minimum level.

A short course of 1 to 5 weeks will improve the pupil's confidence in their use of English and equip them to attain good grades at school  in their own country.

A longer term course of 6 + weeks will equip the student with the academic level to optimise the rewards of a Tertiary Education.
