Introduction

Are you thinking about starting a college or university course? If so, this course provides an opportunity for you to reflect on your English language skills. There could be many reasons why you might want to do this. You may have been educated in a language other than English, or perhaps you studied in English but in another country where the conventions are different from those used in the British educational system. Alternatively, you may have studied in Britain but not at degree level.

This course provides a sample of Level 1 study in Education.
