Our tutors have developed tasks and materials drawn from academic textbooks and journals to ensure that your English tuition is relevant in an academic context. For listening practice we have a series of lectures specially recorded by lecturers at Heriot-Watt University.
You will study:
academic English for writing, reading, listening and speaking for business and technical degrees
information technology with English language
study skills to encourage reflective independent learning
background studies in business, maths or science and technology
English for use in everyday situations
culture (in particular, Scottish culture and society)
By the end of the programme, you will have developed sufficient English language skills to: cope with authentic, spoken English in lectures and seminars
take relevant notes from listening and reading material and use these in essays and seminar presentations
understand English grammar at sentence, paragraph and text level
understand academic texts
write in an appropriate academic style to describe, explain and persuade your audience
use a wide range of academic vocabulary
use IT to research academic subjects
solve problems and think critically as required for university study
Once you have successfully completed the programme, we will not ask you to take IELTS or other external English examination again.
