Leeds Language College Ltd.

Leeds Language College Ltd. offers a wide range of services. Your first point of contact for all queries, documents and letters is Reception. We have a friendly and open approach with our students and we understand that no two learners are the same. We aim to cater for these differences within our groups with a flexible and adaptable approach that allows us to assist each person in a way suited to them.

COURSES

At Leeds Language College you can study a wide range of courses. You can study a General English Course (from beginner to proficiency level) or an Exam Course including IELTS, FCE, CAE and CPE. We also offer one to one courses, Business English and English for Academic Purposes. Intensive speaking practice helps boost our students’ confidence. If you complete your course successfully and achieve the required grades for compulsory homework class work and level assessments, you will be able to move to a higher level course.

FREE PLACEMENT TESTS

Placement tests help us find a group at the correct level for you and we will place you in a group with students who are at the same level as you. The placement test consists of a written grammar and reading test and a speaking assessment. You do not have to make an appointment to do a placement test. Just come to the college between 8.30am and 5.30pm, Monday to Friday. Placement tests are compulsory for all students. You can contact us if you have any questions about the placement test.

FREE TRIAL LESSON

As an introduction to the college we offer a free trial lesson (1 hour) so you can get a better feel of what we have to offer. You can arrange a free trial lesson after you have taken a placement test and we have offered you a group at your level . Please contact us for details or to arrange your first lesson.

ACCOMMODATION

We help our students to find the best affordable accommodation. The accommodation is selected for location, transport facilities and friendly environment. As Leeds is a university city, there is plenty of accommodation to choose from, to suit every budget. You can choose from:

Home Stay Accommodation The home stay accommodation consists of self catering, bed and breakfast and half board subject to availability. You will live with a local family and become part of the household and integrate with the host family’s lifestyle. Most home stay accommodation is located in the suburbs, which is where families live in private houses. We inspect home stay accommodation providers regularly.

Independent Accommodation You can rent shared student accommodation or your own independent bedsit, flat, apartment or house, depending on your budget. You can also stay in one of the many hotels in Leeds. If you choose this option we can direct you to a local estate agent or accommodation booking website.

Students Aged Under 18

Please note home stay accommodation is only available to students aged over 18. If you are 16-17 years old you will need to live with a guardian or your parents, unless you are part of a visiting group of students.

SOCIAL PROGRAMME

The social programme helps you to integrate with other students as well as life in the UK. It gives you an opportunity to practise your conversational English and learn how to interact with people in English, in social settings. You can improve your conversation skills, get to know your teacher and classmates better and also meet students and teachers from other classes. Join other students and staff on trips and outings, learn more about the UK and improve your English. Some of the activities we organize are:

• Free Conversation Club,

• Bowling Night,

• Karaoke Night,

• Pizza Night,

During warmer months we also organize whole college trips and outings to places of historical and cultural interest and to many of the beautiful towns, villages, parks and castles in Yorkshire. Details and photos of our trips, activities and outings can be found on our Facebook Page
