The Centre is accredited by the British Council and is authorised by the University of Cambridge ESOL as an exam centre and for ELT teaching awards. It is also an International English Language Testing (IELTS) Centre.

The course books for the morning es are from the Cambridge Empower series.

You will study selected topics or themes, grammar, vocabulary, and communicative skills appropriate for your level. You will study one unit of the course book each week and the theme or topic will depend on when you arrive and the course book for your level.

Students are divided into two groups which each have different set of lectures: one on Science and one on Arts and Humanities topics. The afternoons consist of a preparatory lesson, the lecture itself and a post-lecture feedback session.

Important Information Social Programme We have a lively social programme arranged by our Social Programme team. There is a wide variety of activities during the course (e.g. Quiz night, International Night) and you will be given information about the programme each week. One afternoon per week there is a football game and other evening activities (e.g. barbecue). This is a good opportunity to meet people from around the world and practise your language skills in an informal situation.

There may be a charge for these and tickets are available from the online shop (http://onlineshop.shef.ac.uk/).
