English Facts

English has by far the greatest vocabulary of all world languages: excluding proper nouns there are over 1,000,000 words, compared with French which has fewer than 100,000

There are many differences between the English spoken in the UK and that of the USA. Not only are there several differences in spelling, but there are also words that are pronounced differently

The popularity of English is mainly due for the influence of the British Empire and the cultural influence of the USA after World War II

English 1 to 1 Business

These courses in English are meant for those that feel that learning English would make a change in their work. For starters, it is expedient to learn how to say hello/goodbye, as well as basic business protocol; once the basics have been mastered, reading and writing come to the fore. Students who have greatly benefitted have been involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where another language is required, and those working in the international academia and government circuits. Even on our most fundamental beginner's course, students can anticipate ending the course with basic telephone English and e-mail English skills for communicating, as well as survival English if a short visit to the country is needed.

English 1 to 1 General

These English lessons fit a broader spectrum, and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival English by the end of their course, which will provide them without enough English to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of English culture and those who just wish to pass a particular English exam.

Wigan

A town in Greater Manchester, in northwest England, Wigan has a population of around 85,000. It was formerly an industrial hub for textile manufacture, but the last mill closed in 1980. The town remains a centre of popular music for youths, with many alternative pubs and clubs to be found in the town centre, all eager to promote and host local musicians and bands. Currently in the middle of a large "regeneration" project, Wigan is undergoing many changes to give it increased commercialism and tourism.
