ECS Scotland

Small groups

Small group General English courses at ECS Scotland have a maximum of 5 students per group. Small groups enable you to participate and get the most out of each lesson.

Great focus is placed on vocabulary building and speaking & listening communication fluency with other skills covered as necessary for each group. Many of our clients have studied English before but cannot effectively use their knowledge, our aim is to help you to activate your existing knowledge and to expand your skills and fluency in English.

Experienced teachers

All teachers at ECS Scotland are native English speakers with a university degree and have experience teaching English as a Foreign Language to professional adults.

ECS Scotland does not use set coursebooks but uses both genuine English language content (newspapers, video, radio) and material especially for learners of English. The curriculum is topic based and follows the CEFL (Common European Framework for Languages). Students are encouraged to discuss topics of interest and requests with their teachers. We believe you learn more if you are interested in what you are learning.
