Full-day English courses in Colchester

A Home Language International immersion course means you live the language you are learning and is the fastest, most natural way to learn. You are staying in your teacher’s home, have one-to-one language lessons and continue to use and practise your language skills sharing the daily life of your teacher’s family during meals, conversations, visits and activities as they all take place in the language you are studying.

Our Intensive Course coordinates 20 lessons on our Main Course programme with 250 additional minutes of lessons which run on 4 afternoons. These afternoon lessons build language to help students communicate at lower language levels and give lots of communication practice to higher level learners.

IELTS (International English Language Testing System) is an examination in academic English skills required by many universities and colleges and healthcare institutions.

It is the most effective way to make rapid progress: you live with your teacher who will give you private language lessons and correct you at all times spent with them. It completely immerses you in the language you are learning as you put into practice what you have learnt during your lessons through social interactions and meal time with your host.
