Anna From Slovakia, Bi-Component CourseMarek spent one week of her studies at our English in Margate school and the other week at a local secondary school, Sandwich Technology School, where he was able to put into practice the methodology and language skills gained on the course.
Marek found the course taught him a lot, and one of the things that made him choose to study at English in Margate was the Bi-Component course offering students the option to study and then spend some time in the work place putting these skills into practice.
