Our method
At MANCHESTER ENGLISH we believe that the best way to learn a language is to speak the language. By speaking and practising from the start, supported by experienced, professional and highly motivated native teachers, you will build on what you already know and what you have learnt.
This is why at MANCHESTER ENGLISH we only use the target language in all our classes, with the emphasis on the ability to communicate both orally and in writing. Students learn at their pace by using words and structures in context and by practising realistic activities that are designed to develop and improve their level. In addition we offer:
- Reduced group sizes (maximum 8 students) to achieve higher performance and increased teacher / student attention
- An entrance test to determine the current level of students and to place them in the most appropriate corresponding group
- Preparation for official Cambridge exams (B1 - C2) plus TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS & APTIS
- Help with CV writing and Interview preparation in English
