Our courses run continuously throughout the year. Students may enroll at any time and continue for as long as they need. Classes take place during the mornings, from 9:00am - 12:30pm each day, with a 30 minute break. Students may attend classes each day or 2 to 3 days per week.
We have Beginners, Pre-Intermediate, Intermediate, Upper-Intermediate and Advanced classes. Students do either a written or verbal test to determine the best level for them to join. All core textbooks are imported and prescribe to the International requirements for EFL [English as a Foreign Language] teaching. We assist students in the preparation for the TOEFL and Cambridge examinations and provide them with the necessary materials.

Faculty Information:
All our teachers are either qualified teachers with a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificate or they have completed their university degree with English as major and also have a TEFL certificate. Our teachers are taken on a trial basis to ensure we have teachers with the necessary understanding and skills to teach English as a foreign language to adults.
Other Activities:
South Africa is often referred to as a 'world in one country', simply because it has such an extraordinary range of scenic splendor. From snow-capped mountains to rugged, rocky coastline or endless beaches, coral reefs to desert dunes, open grasslands to meandering rivers, we really do have something of everything. You may want to choose just one particular environment, or try to squeeze in a representative slice of each. At the end of the day, you may just realize that you need to come back again, and again.
* Backpackers: South Africa is a world-class backpackers' destination, offering a unique and extraordinary experience within a diverse and beautiful land. The backpacker, whether student, youth or independent traveler, will find a sophisticated and established backpacker tourism industry, providing everything from backpacker accommodation and hop-on hop-off transport to adventure activities and day trips. Backpacking around a country is about interaction and participation and as you weave your way from one province to the next, the friendliness and expressiveness of South Africa's people will amaze you. So, whether you find yourself a guest at a traditional wedding in KwaZulu-Natal; horseback riding along wild open beaches in the Eastern Cape; tramping through snow in the majestic Drakensberg Mountains in the Freestate; hurtling through midair attached to the world's longest bungee on the Garden Route; wine-tasting with a rather jovial bunch of fellow backpackers in The Cape; the only surfer on one of the longest left rides in the world on the West Coast; participating in a drum-circle in Soweto, Gauteng; floating downstream past God's Thumb Print on the Orange River in the North West Province; or having a conversation with an elephant in Mpumalanga, South Africa will touch your soul.
* Culture: The Rainbow Nation's many cultures - African, European, Oriental - are alive and well. They may be experienced in restaurants offering cuisine from around the world, but also South Africa's own cooking, a delicious blend of the colours of the Rainbow. The music and the dance may be found on the streets and in the clubs, but also at special shows for tourists. The arts and crafts range from homemade pottery to European fine art, available in rural villages or city galleries. Perhaps most importantly, however, is that the Rainbow Nation can be heard on the streets - which other country in the world has eleven official languages.
