Christmas and New Year English Courses
St Giles Colleges in the UK provide a special course over the Christmas and New Year
period each year.
The St Giles Christmas Course combines a 2-week General English course with the chance
to experience a typical English or American Christmas with a host family. The course
content is general and covers a mixture of grammar, vocabulary, speaking, listening,
reading and writing skills. The emphasis is on practical communication and speaking
skills. Special topics are also taught to allow students to make the most of their time
in England over Christmas, e.g. shopping vocabulary and British customs.
We also run some special Christmas Social Programme activities such as a visit to a carol
concert in a church, a trip to see a Christmas show at the theatre, going to see the 'Holiday on Ice' show etc. The cost of these activities is not included in the price - students just pay for those activities in which they wish to participate.
