Our Academic Year Programme 3 offers a combination of 20-hour-per-week tuition and 26 hour-per-week tuition. Please see below a sample programme of a suggested AYP 3 for a student with an Intermediate Level of English:

*Students wishing to sit a TIE or TOEIC Exam will attend a General Intensive English Course where their teachers will provide them with supplementary course work in order to prepare them for the exam. They can also use our supervised multi-media centre or language laboratory to work on preparation for either of these examinations. Examination fee NOT included in the course fee.

**The IELTS and TOEFL exam preparation courses are available as a 26-hour programme with afternoon lessons (This module option costs extra. Please see course price list for further details)

The above is an example of how a student may structure their study year. However, specific programme timetables can be tailored to suit the student's individual needs. Students who wish to participate in a more intense academic study programme can incorporate our additional afternoon tuition into their year. Afternoon options include:

• Small Group Conversation Classes

• Small Group Business English Classes

• Small Group Examination Preparation for TOEFL or IELTS examinations
