One-to-one General/Business

English Course in York

It's no problem if you need to take English lessons specifically for personal use or to help with your career - our trainers mould the lesson plan to your precise needs.

General and Business courses in English differ in style and content: a General course will concentrate on developing confident conversational skills, making short visits to the country less of an exercise in frustration and more about building upon the foundations to your own ends. Business courses will centre more on formal, business communication, and focus more on reading and writing skills as you advance further.


Courses are, however, tailor-made - you cover in your lessons what you need to cover. Most students taking a Business English course will gain telephone and email expertise, as well as general conversation skills. In the same vein, the syllabus for General courses is not set in stone - all you need do is ask your teacher.


Our Business courses cater to a range of requirements. Many of our clients work for foreign governments and educational institutions, corporations with branches abroad, as well as those who buy and sell around the world. General courses cater mostly to those who wish to learn English for short trips to (or through) a country where it is widely spoken; as well as those who wish to pass a specific English exam, people who want to buy a home abroad, and people marrying into a English family.

Info about York


York is a small city with a real sense of history. Indeed in AD 71 Eboracum (as it was then known) was made one of two capitals of Roman Britain. The city is a real hotspot for tourists with the main attraction being the stunning York Minster, the largest Gothic Cathedral in northern Europe. The University of York is a top-rated academic institution and consequently attracts high-flying students from across Britain and overseas. Once you have visited the Cathedral; a relaxing boat trip on the River Ouse or a stroll around one of its cobbled medieval streets will confirm York's reputation as the place to be if you want to study in a town that has continuing appreciation of its heritage.
