IELTS preparation courses
IELTS preparation courses are for international students (non-EEA) who wish to apply to a UK university. The courses vary from three weeks up to 11 months, with different intensity levels. There are IELTS preparation courses for any level of English. The courses can also be tailored to suit your specific needs.
Academic English
Academic English courses are designed for students who wish to focus on the English they will find in schools, colleges and universities. IELTS may be the minimum requirement to be accepted by a university, but students who want to perform to a high standard in their education may need to improve their academic English.
Academic English courses typically vary from three weeks to a few months.

General English
General English courses are for students who just want to improve their daily English ability. For example, you may want to improve your English for work and life in the UK. These courses focus more on speaking and listening, although reading and writing are also taught.
These courses can be of any length and often have the most flexible start dates.
Most of the English language centres (schools) in the UK offer these three courses. Schools can also offer help with accommodation, such as staying with host families, in student halls or dormitories, or in private accommodation.
