General English (GE) is full-time language study for levels from Beginner to Upper-Intermediate and covers all skills – Reading, Speaking, Listening, Writing and Grammar. Students are in classes for 20 hours per week.

The IELTS Preparation course is for students who need to prepare for the IELTS test (either in the Academic Module or the General Training Module). Students improve their language proficiency (in all testing fields - reading, writing, listening and speaking) and test-taking techniques through skills development and graded test practice, focusing on each module and key task types.

English for Academic Purposes (EAP) is our highest level and is designed primarily for students who have Provisional Admission to Undergraduate/Postgraduate programs of our partner providers. Undergraduate students need to achieve credit (65%) from the EAP1 class to meet English language entry requirements. For details please ask our administration manager on level 1.

At the end of each program students who pass its requirements receive a certificate stating the details of the program completed. For example, if you studied our General English course and achieved an Upper Intermediate level, you will receive a Kingsway certificate for Upper Intermediate level with details of your reading, writing, listening and speaking proficiency.
