Courses for Teenagers & Young Learners
Courses for Closed Groups
School groups, with students from the ages of 10 to 18, attend specially planned short courses throughout the year. In recent years groups have come from Switzerland, Spain, Italy, Austria, Mexico, Japan, Poland, Argentina, France, Hong Kong and the Czech Republic.
These courses can be run at any time of year, but not normally during July and August, for a group of young learners. Course dates, course intensity, programme details with inclusive excursions and activities, class size and accommodation requirements are all negotiable. Special arrangements can be made for small groups of children from the age of ten.
English in Chester has a wealth of experience in tailor-making programmes for young people and welcomes all enquiries. If you have a group of students that would like to come to English in Chester please send your requirements in an email to Hannah Day, Marketing Manager (hannah@english-in-chester.co.uk) and she will prepare a quotation for you.
