Combination Courses
Our combination courses provide the extra flexibility that Exeter Academy is known for. Combination courses include group lessons and one-to-one lessons.
They are perfect for supplementing your General English course if you want/need to:
- Have a more intensive English course.
- Focus on specific areas of the English language e.g. skills work, pronunciation, fluency, grammar or vocabulary etc.
- Study specific topic areas e.g. English for business, Academic English, English for specific purposes e.g. Military, Medical, Literature etc. Hobbies and Interests.
- Get one-to-one feedback on your skills, error correction, writing style, pronunciation etc.
- Get extra help with certain grammar topics that you couldn’t cover in your group courses or that you aren’t clear about.
- Study for exams that are not included in our General English programme e.g. TOEFL, TOEIC, BEC etc.
- Practise English in ‘real situations’ by going out with your one-to-one teacher and practising through real-life activities and situations e.g. in the bank, shopping, socialising, getting information, asking for help, listening to natural English etc.
