At Kendal College we offer ESOL functional skills courses for entry 3, level 1 and level 2. These courses are part time and tend to be in the evening to suit our learners.
You will work on your own and in small groups within a relaxed and supportive atmosphere. A wide range of materials will be used and related as much as possible to your life experience.
You will revise and develop your reading and writing skills, including spelling, grammar and punctuation and apply them to a variety of everyday situations, including:
– Filling in forms
– Writing enquiry and complaint letters and emails
– Writing articles
– CV writing
– Reading for understanding
– Speaking and listening skills, including presentations
These courses have exams for reading, writing and speaking and listening. The exams will be online or in person on paper.

At Adult Learning Kendal we offer a wide range of courses to allow you either to gain a qualification or to learn a new skill. The courses we offer use a blended learning approach; some classes are face-to-face in one of our local venues, some are taught entirely online using Zoom and some offer the flexibility of combining online learning with face-to-face teaching. This means that learners have a choice to suit their own personal needs.
We currently offer qualifications in Maths, English, Digital Skills, ESOL (English for Speakers of other Languages), Employability Skills, Health and Wellbeing and a range of qualifications for Learners with Learning Difficulties or Disabilities. Our ESOL courses are offered at entry 1 to level 1.
We also provide a range of community learning courses to help you develop new or improve existing skills. Some examples include Languages (Spanish, French and Japanese), Arts and Crafts and Family Learning. The administration team is based at Kendal Library and we are always keen to speak to new and existing learners.
