Language in Action

What is Language in Action?

Language in Action is our free programme of workshops, social activities and trips designed to encourage all students to practise the skills they have learnt in class. We believe that the best way to improve is by communicating in English as much as possible during your stay. The more you practise the better your English will be. All of our structured activities have clear learning objectives to help you maximise your learning outside the classroom.

Join our Language in Action programme to:

Afternoon sessions

Afternoon sessions can be combined with any of our 15 or 20 hour language courses. These sessions are held within the school and cover a variety of skills and interests, including:

• Workshops which develop practical skills for life, work and study – such as web building, public speaking, interview techniques, essay writing, study skills, first aid and meditation.
• Clubs which offer a chance to try something new or share your passion with others – such as drama, table tennis, film, books, debating or creative arts.

After-class activities

After class activities are available to students on all courses and are an ideal way to get to know other Bell students and explore British life and culture. They include:

• Social activities to improve your confidence communicating in English – such as bowling and table tennis competitions, curry and bingo nights or an evening in a British café or pub.
• Trips which help you explore the UK and give you an introduction to British culture – to destinations such as Oxford, Cambridge, London, Bath, Brighton, Windsor and York.
