General / Travel English

We all love our summer holidays. Heading off to a foreign country to experience its cultures and traditions is one of life’s great pleasures. English, of course, is the dominant global language, not only in English-speaking countries but also in countries where your native language is not spoken. If that prevents you from experiencing your holiday fully (or perhaps you set off on a big jungle trip without soap after accidentally asking for soup in the shop, as happened to one of our team!), we have the Ideal solution.

Our Travel English classes demonstrate the scenarios in which English will need to be used on a trip, whether it’s for business or pleasure – at the airport, at a restaurant and reading a menu, catching a bus, going to the cinema or theatre, asking for help, amongst other things. Role-plays and functional language supplement the more traditional classes (based on the Communicate approach) to give your trip the Ideal start.

In addition, if your objective is simply to improve your English, then General English is our forte. Our professional, specialist teachers like to use your favourite TV shows, films, music, YouTube videos, books (from classic literature to novels), real-life texts and lots of historical and cultural contexts to demonstrate and explore language. We could also combine this with English through History.
