ACADEMIC ENGLISH COURSES

Commonly known as Academic English, entails training students, usually in a higher education setting, to use language appropriately for study. It is one of the most common forms of English for specific purposes (ESP).

An EAP program focuses instruction on skills required to perform in an English-speaking academic context across core subject areas generally encountered in a university setting.

Programs may also include a more narrow focus on the more specific linguistic demands of a particular area of study, for example business subjects.

Programs may be divided into pre-sessional courses and courses taken alongside students' other subjects. In the former case, sometimes EAP courses may be intended to raise students' general English levels so that they can enter university. 

This will be useful for students going:

• Boarding School (GCSE, A Level, IB)
• Foundation Courses (university entrance)
• University (undergraduate / post-graduate)

Learn the academic skills you need to:

• Communicate with teachers and students
• Read academic texts
• Write academic notes, summaries, reports, essays & papers
• Give presentations
