English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL)

Provision is available for adults whose first language is not English and who are living in this country or will be staying here for a number of years. Classes are offered to suit learners' needs and deal with speaking, reading and writing in English for everyday tasks.

The classes are at various levels from beginner to lower intermediate. There are separate classes for women and men, as well as mixed classes.

Will there be other people like me?

Yes. One in five adults have difficulty with reading, writing and maths. Learners are of all ages and come from all over Dundee.

What happens in the Centre?

The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. After a chat with a member of the team, tuition will be arranged to suit your need. Learning takes place in small groups available from Monday to Friday, including some evenings.
