Our Courses

English for young learners. Ages 6-10

6 to 10 year old children who are learning English for the first time. This course pays most emphasis on communication and pronunciation using lots of word games, songs and other fun activities. The lessons are twice weekly and last 75 minutes each.

English for Teenagers

10 to 18 year olds who go to state school but have limited opportunities to speak in class because of high numbers and lack of modern teaching skills.

At Robert's School of English class sizes are cut to a maximum of 10/12 students so that each participant has more time to converse with the teacher and fellow classmates in a controlled and comfortable atmosphere.

These lessons run from 4.00 p.m. to 8.15 p.m. every day from Monday to Friday. Students attend lessons twice a week and the duration of the course is 90 hours from October to June.

Those students who regularly attend lessons throughout the year are encouraged to take an official examination at the end of course to certify the level of language ability attained. Our school prepares students to undertake UCLES and Trinity College of London examinations such as KET, PET, FCE or Trinity 1 to Trinity 12 (more will be explained about this topic in the Examinations section)
