Moving to a new country can pose many challenges, among them being the language barrier. Learning a new language is undeniably tough, but it’s a crucial step to increase your chances of securing employment and forging new friendships within your new community.
We offer several ESOL courses for people whose first language is not English, from those who are total beginners to others who may be a bit more advanced with their English.

Amazing college and amazing tutors. I can't believe how quick the time went. I've left not only achieving my Diploma in Humanities and Social Science; I've also taken with me confidence and aspirations to be the best I can be.
Staying residential also gives you the opportunity to meet with new people, and strangers soon become friends. The team are really accommodating and it is disability friendly.
Absolutely loved my time at Northern College and would recommend to everyone as it's the best thing I did.
