The Prime Experience is a special course for those in the ‘prime of life’ aged 45 years plus. The course includes 15 hours per week of British Culture lessons* in small classes (maximum 8) which will help participants to understand more about modern British society as well as practising all aspects of their English and especially speaking.
The course also includes a dedicated social programme specially designed for mature learners. The 3 half day excursions each week show participants some of the more unusual aspects of London and we have even included a English afternoon tea.
There are also evening visits to famous London pubs or to an award winning fish and chip restaurant and each weekend there is an all day trip outside London.
Theatre visits can be added as an optional extra.
* Participants will be offered the possibility of joining a general English group if their level is lower than needed for the British Culture lessons (B2).| Monday to Friday | |
