Students have nineteen classes of English per week (each class lasts 50 minutes). These nineteen classes are made up of 10 'main' classes, in which the emphasis is on more structured work and nine 'supplementary' classes, in which students use computers, prepare for excursions, play language learning games and so on.

The emphasis in all the classes is primarily on speaking and listening. Students will be asked to do lots of work with a partner or in small groups, so that they can practise English as much as possible.

At the end of the course students are given a Saint Michael's College certificate of attendance. Each student also receives an individual report.
