GESE Programme
Chaucer College offers a comprehensive 3-week Foundation of Academic English course designed for junior language learners looking to excel in both language and cultural immersion.
By preparing students for the Trinity GESE speaking exam, we provide them with a globally recognised qualification that strengthens their academic and professional profile—especially for future study or work in English-speaking contexts.
As a valuable addition to the course, it helps students build confidence and develop real-world communication skills that extend into everyday contexts. Beyond the classroom, students engage with British culture first-hand through educational excursions that reinforce language learning and provide meaningful, lasting experiences.
