Staff arrive on June 31. Teaching materials are a combination of published texts supplemented by our own materials. There is an emphasis on materials relating to health and the environment. Students are placed according to age and ability. There are six classes, from Beginner to Advanced.
Teachers teach a different class level each week.
This provides variety for both students and teachers. There is an induction meeting the day before the course begins, providing an opportunity for teachers to look at the materials, meet colleagues and get to know the school and grounds. During the course ongoing academic support and supervision is provided by a non-teaching Director of Studies employed specifically for this purpose. The course is hard work and recreational facilities are good. There is a village about 5 miles away with several hotels and bars, including one with a full leisure centre.
