What the college says

English Language is a course that is ideally suited to students who have a genuine interest in language development and analysis. The course will involve the exploration and analysis of various forms of spoken, written and electronic English ranging from spontaneous, colloquial conversations, text messages and voice-overs to written texts produced for a specific audience and purpose. Students will analyse and evaluate how language varieties have influenced the construction of a text. They will also produce original writing for a real-world purpose on a topical language issue and undertake a language investigation.
