ESOL

MidKent College's courses in English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) are for those who wish to improve their English so they can make a successful life within the UK.

These courses, which will enable you to learn English as a foreign or second language, can be studied full or part-time and are delivered from our campuses in Maidstone and Medway in Kent.

A short diagnostic test will decide the best level for your study.

If you are 16 or over and want to improve your English to study, work or live within the UK, then these courses are for you.

At each level, ESOL courses cover the four main language skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing.

Entry Level 1 is for students who need to develop their everyday communication in English. Introductory sentence writing, reading for meaning, vocabulary, listening for information and speaking are covered.

Entry Level 2 is for learners who are already able to communicate in English, but need more assistance with accuracy.

Entry Level 3 is for competent speakers of English who anticipate needing more formal English in their daily lives. As well as listening and speaking, students must develop good reading and writing skills.

Level 1 comprises language skills for competent speakers who need a higher level of English. Learners will study more complex language including phrasal verbs and idiomatic language.

Full-time courses include:

English for Speakers of Other Languages
> Entry Levels 1, 2 & 3 and Level 1

The same courses can be completed through part-time, evening study.
