    English Courses For Adults

    Programs Guide

     


    If you can picture the typical student who studies English overseas you’re probably thinking of a young adult of around 18 to 20 in age. Well, this may be the typical age group but it’s not the only one! There are actually more and more English courses for adults being offered today, specifically aimed at the over 30 age group. These adult English classes attract adults who want to experience the fun of learning a language overseas but prefer to do it with people of their own age.

     

     


    Why Study Adult English Classes?

     

    It’s a fact that there are many adults around the world who wish they had studied English when they were younger. Now, they think it’s too late, maybe too embarrassing, or not possible at all, but this simply isn’t the case. There are many English courses for adults that have been specifically designed with adults in mind. They are aimed at adults over the age of 30 so there are no younger students in the class with you. This means you get to share experiences with people of your own age and aren’t expected to fit in with young students who you have little in common with.

     

     

     

    Kid-Friendly Learning

     

    English lessons for adults are designed for adults, and structured with activities and topics that will appeal to your age group. And some schools go the extra mile to ensure you’re able to study your adult English classes without having to worry about your kids. They offer childminding while you’re studying, or older kids can even get involved in a course of their own, learning English or other skills at their own pace!

     

    Benefits of Learning English

     

    As an adult you may be wondering why you’d want to learn English now, at this later stage in your life. Well, just because you’re an adult doesn’t stop you from benefiting from the knowledge of another language. English is, after all, the official language spoken in 53 different countries around the world, so that’s a lot of people you’d be able to communicate with!


     

    Enjoy More Rewarding Vacations

     

    Going on vacation in English-speaking countries becomes so much easier when you can speak the language – ordering in restaurants, visiting attractions and understanding the tour guide, buying souvenirs – these are just a few times that English will come in handy. And there are many exciting countries you can choose from in which to study your adult English classes – Malta, the UK, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa, to name just a few!
