English for Speakers of other Languages (ESOL)

We’ll help you improve your English to allow you to get more out of your daily life.

Aimed at non-native English speakers, our courses can help you be more confident in your use of English as a second language and to communicate better. You will focus on reading, writing listening and speaking to help you achieve your goals in study, work or everyday life. We have ESOL courses ranging from SCQF level 1 to 6 that will provide you with the qualification you may need to progress in employment and education.
