Course description

The course is held in the teacher's residence.

This English Language course is bespoke and on Monday morning during the introductory lessons we establish in detail how the course will be tailored for you.

It is expected that after the morning session and before lunch that the client will be reviewing the morning lessons and preparing tasks suggested or learning and practising vocabulary encouraged by your teacher.

After lunch we do activities of your choice unless you want to pursue your own walking or sight seeing.

We usually have a tea and scones session around four pm back at Honddu and another hour of lessons and consolidate with more lesson prep before supper.

visa

Visa support

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. However, the school can supply you with all the documentation you need to support your visa application.

If you are studying in the UK for over 11 months, you will receive a reference number called a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) that you need to submit to the UK embassy along with your General Student Visa application. Students who have successfully booked a language course and have paid their fees will receive a CAS from Honddu Villa. Please note that UK law states that a CAS can only be issued to students who intend to pursue English language studies for over 11 months.

If you are studying in the UK for 11 months or less, you have to apply for a special visitor visa called a Student Visitor Visa. As a student visitor, you will not be able to work part-time while studying. If you plan to study in the UK for 11 months or less, a letter of acceptance will be sent to your home address by regular mail at no charge to you.
