There is a full programme of evening and weekend activities planned by the Social Organiser available for those who wish to enjoy the more relaxed summer atmosphere. English Refresher Course intermediate level and above 3 weeks in September 21 hours per week for those preparing for university studies for people needing upgrading for their work The Refresher Course caters for people who have fairly good English, but may not have used it for some time. They often neither require nor have time for a longer course, and so want the opportunity to brush up on areas of weakness and develop their fluency as fast as possible. They may be starting the academic year in October or taking on work responsibilities that require more use of English. Non-Intensive English Courses A range of less intensive courses is provided on the main Edgbaston campus in the evenings as part of the School of Continuing Studies programme.
Advice is offered on choosing and preparing for suitable English language exams.
Many who choose these classes are enrolled at the University on other courses, but they also attract people working or living in Birmingham who want to improve their English for professional or social reasons. If you want to apply for one of these courses, please contact Angela Stewart.
