Totnes

Join our General English class in the mornings to improve your grammar, skills and vocabulary then join our teacher in exploring the wider world of English history and culture, through visiting interesting houses, gardens, castles and abbeys as well as walking in areas of outstanding natural beauty like Dartmoor and the South Devon coast for 2 afternoons per week. Then on the third afternoon, you have time in the classroom to discuss English culture in general- English food, politics, ideas and social customs.

This is more than just an English course- though you learn a lot of English too! In a small group of maximum 4 people, you can spend one day revising your modal verbs through visiting Buckfast Abbey with its living community of Benedictine monks and another discussing sustainable living and eco tourism with our Transition Town team. Perfect for Intermediate plus language learners looking for more than just a language course!
