English Language Teaching Centre

English Language Teaching (ELT) provides high quality English language training for international students. We are a friendly department, staffed by well-qualified language teaching professionals from all over the UK, almost all of whom have experience of teaching overseas and who are therefore very sympathetic to the needs of international students.

As well as providing year-long foundation programmes and pre-sessional courses, we offer the following taught courses:

  • 1000 level modules in English as a Foreign Language (for non-native speakers of English)
  • 2000 level modules in English for Academic Purposes (for non-native speakers of English)
  • 1000 level modules in Foundations of Language (introductory Linguistics modules, open to all students with an interest in language and linguistics)
  • Week-long introductory teacher training courses in TEFL for anyone thinking of teaching English in another country (for example, as part of a degree in Modern Languages).

In addition, the ELT Centre offers language support to matriculated students who are non-native speakers of English, throughout their studies. For up-to-date information about In-sessional English Language Support Service (IELSS) and the types of language development opportunities it offers, see In-sessional .
