Newcastle School - Intensive Course

An Intensive Course follows the same principal as a General Course but gives you more hours of study per week. Ideal for learners who already have a working knowledge of English but perhaps may be limited on the amount of time they have for a course.

Courses run from Monday to Friday and can be booked from 1 or 2 weeks up to as many weeks as you like. Your English language level will be tested by the school on your first day (or online in advance) in order to place you in the correct group.
