What is a language course?

A language course primarily focuses on four skills: speaking, writing, reading and listening. You will learn about different dialects and fundamental communication methods in a new language.

Are online language courses effective?

Yes, they are; we have tons of success stories from students who have gone on to achieve their goals after studying with us. So whether you want to work overseas, communicate better when you travel or even improve your cognitive performance, there are many advantages to learning a new language.

Why invest in one of our online language courses?

Our courses are created by industry experts and taught by experienced and passionate tutors through our award-winning learning platform. You’ll gain all of the advantages of traditional education and so much more when you study with us. Rather than learn at a specific time, place and pace of an entire class, you’re given total control when you enrol on a language course with us. You can study whenever and wherever is easiest for you, which is perfect if you’re navigating a full-time job or have family commitments that must take precedence. Not only that, you have a whole team on hand to support you, from our learning advisers to personal tutors, who you can schedule one-to-one time with whenever you need additional help or support. Browse through our language courses and speak to one of our learning advisers if you have any questions.

Why study a language course?

Whether you: want to improve your understanding of the English language, require an A-level qualification in a specific language to progress on your chosen career path or, want to learn a new tongue as a hobby, taking language classes online is an effective way to learn without disrupting your lifestyle. They say that the easiest way to learn a new language is to speak it regularly. When you enrol in one of our online language courses, you will have access to a personal tutor to help you every step of the way. You can learn to speak, read and write French or Spanish fluently at GCSE or A-level when you study with us.

Is learning a language a good investment?

Yes – learning a new language can open employment opportunities, including being a translator or interpreter.

Is it still worth learning a language?

Yes, particularly if you want to visit the country where the language you are studying is spoken. Being dual or multilingual can be extremely beneficial.

Is it worth doing a language course?

Absolutely. Learning more about your native tongue, or learning a new language entirely is considered a unique skill.

How much is a language course?

The fees for a language course will vary. Check out our flexible payment plans to find a structure suitable for you.

A level 3 language course typically takes between 8 and 24 months to complete.

How long does it take to fully learn a language?

Normally it takes between 6 to 12 months to fully master the basics of a new language. To be fully fluent, you will need to dedicate at least 2 years.
