Our ESOL courses are designed to help people gain a better understanding of English, through speaking, reading and written forms. Students will learn how to correctly use punctuation, paragraphs, grammar, sentence structure, tenses and language features for both formal and informal reading and writing. The course will also teach students to extend their vocabulary and practise their spoken English in role playing exercises and group discussions. We offer courses at a variety of levels, so you will need to attend a language assessment before you start to help decide which level is most suitable for you.

You will build your vocabulary, your confidence and the skills required for everyday communication in English and integration into British society.  
This will depend on the level of course that you are assigned to and will be discussed with your tutors.
You will need to have a real passion to learn English and some time to do homework and practise your English outside of the classroom. You will need to be willing to do group work and take part in role plays and group discussions to develop your speaking and listening skills. You will be expected to attend every week or notify your tutor for reason of absence, failure to do so could result in you being withdrawn and refunds cannot be issued for non-attendance.
There are no entry requirements for this course, and we accept all learners with very little or no English ability. You can apply for the course online or go to our Information Centre at either Broxbourne or Ware College to collect a paper application. After applying you will be invited to the College for an interview with an ESOL tutor to check your level of English. You will also by assessed by our Information Team who will check your passport, Home Office documents, that you have been resident in the country for three years, evidence of employment benefits or low wage. The interview and assessment can take up to two hours, you can bring a friend or family member who can speak English on your behalf at the interview and assessment.
Fees are dependent on the specific course that you are assigned to following your assessment. Typical fees are approximately ยฃ450 for the course (including any exams) plus a ยฃ45 book fee. Please note that once your course has started, refunds cannot be issued on the grounds of personal reasons or change in personal circumstances. Learners that can provide evidence that they receive Universal Credit or Job Seekers Allowance or earn less than ยฃ17,374.50 per year could be eligible for fee remission. Learners that can provide Home Office evidence of asylum, refugee, humanitarian, exceptional or indefinite leave to enter or remain status (including Calais leave to remain), could also be eligible for fee remission.
