“I am from Spain and my current employment involves a lot of global travel. Whilst on business in Barnsley, I decided to study English at the College. Improving my English skills has helped me in my job as I can now communicate more efficiently with clients whilst on business trips around the world.”

“I decided to come to College to improve my English skills as I want to progress on to either a Business or Travel and Tourism course in order to help reach my goal of becoming a flight attendant. I am really enjoying my time here and my English has improved vastly and really quickly. The tutors are really supportive, patient and have been key to improving my English.”

“I am really enjoying my course and I have made lots of friends. You also get the chance to take part in fun enrichment activities such as bowling, swimming and watching films. This has helped to improve my English and has made me more confident.”

“I would recommend the ESOL course to students who do not speak English because they will achieve their goals easily and enjoy life in the UK. It will also help them to find a job easily in the future because they will be good at speaking English.”
