Our multi-national English language courses are held in one teaching building in Kensington and run from late June to mid-August. Courses start each Monday and students may study in the mornings (09:00-12:30) or afternoons (13:30-17:00) for 1 to 7 weeks.
The college, Collingham, is in a leafy garden square, five minutes' walk from Gloucester Road and Earl's Court Underground stations.
During the course your progress is monitored. At the end of the course, you are tested, given an end-of-course report and presented with a Discovery Summer certificate and class photo.
