ENGLISH COURSES
At Totnes European School our friendly teachers aim to make learning as interesting and enjoyable as possible to help you get the most out of your time in England.
The Way we Teach
There is a strong emphasis on communicative activities in the classroom. Lessons include lots of speaking, pronunciation and listening practice as well as reading, writing, grammar and vocabulary. Students’ progress is monitored weekly in a short “check of learning” every Friday morning.
We feel that confidence is the key to maximizing your English Language skills. Our small classes and supportive atmosphere help you to improve both your fluency and accuracy to become a more confident speaker of English!
