Studying at a UK university can be immensely challenging, especially if your first language is not English. Taught at our Newton Park campus, our Pre-sessional English Language course can help you gain the skills you need to progress on to Bath Spa University’s degree programmes. The Pre-sessional English Language course will help you understand the teaching styles and expectations of UK university study. You'll improve your- language, academic skills, research skills, critical thinking, analytical abilities. You'll gain confidence and learn to actively engage in the learning environment. On successful completion of the course, you'll be able to progress on to your undergraduate or postgraduate degree at Bath Spa University.We adopt a communicative, interactive approach to teaching and learning, encouraging you to become active learners and move towards autonomy. There is an emphasis on independent research and you are encouraged to develop your own academic-subject related interests. Classroom activities require you to work collaboratively in teams, small groups and pairs as well as individually. You will also have opportunities to conduct research beyond the classroom in the local community.
