This is for you if you want to learn English in a relaxed, non-classroom environment and you would like to know more about English culture and history. Based on a carefully-designed in-house syllabus and materials, Cultural Experience offers an alternative and unique way to increase your confidence in speaking and listening and to improve your vocabulary on a wide range of topics not generally covered in classroom-based lessons.

Elke (68 years) from Germany (May 2019) said:

'At the beginning of the week I could not understand the museum information- today (in Exeter Cathedral) I read and understood about Scott of the Antarctic!". Here is Elke's testimonial.

Lessons are taught outside the school and all transport is in our very own hybrid Outlander vehicle, driven by our teacher, so learning takes place from the beginning to the end of your outing. For a sample programme click here- please note that the programme varies depending on the season and any specific interests you may have.

If you only have 1 week available, this course is ideal for you and will ensure you make the most of your time with us. If you are coming for longer, we recommend you combine this course with one of our other programmes.

How an online course works

Book and pay for your course by bank transfer or credit card.

Pre-course level test (online) and optional interview with Lisa, our Academic Manager before you start your course- do our online test and arrange a time to chat on Skype, Zoom, Wechat or Whatsapp with Amy before the lessons start so you and Lisa can plan your course together.

System check before you start- we will send you a meeting link before you start to check that everything is working your end. Lisa will send you the details and test link.

Choose your teacher- all our teachers are experienced and qualified to teach EFL; however, if you have attended one of our in-school classes at the Gate House, then you might be able to choose your teacher! We will match you with the teacher you want as long as they are available when you want to study.

Please note we are not currently claiming British Council accreditation for our online courses.
