Trafford College
Altrincham Campus
Look at the language around you. How does a baby go from one word to 2,000 by the age of five? How did you learn to speak and what do the words you use say about you? If you’re interested in the answers to these questions then English Language is for you.
What’s on the course?
We’ll begin by looking at how you started to use English Language, how it’s used in everyday life whether spoken, written or electronic. You’ll look at what makes a good conversationalist and what makes a good listener. You’ll even get a chance to find out whether it is true that women talk more than men and do all the gossiping!
