Whether you’re an undergraduate or a postgraduate, our guided activity sessions for speaking can help you achieve success on your academic journey and beyond. Sessions are designed to give you the space and opportunity to prepare and rehearse for both everyday and high-stakes activities here at Imperial. Each session includes input tailored to academic STEMM settings and structured practice opportunities. There will be expert feedback and peer review to help you hone your skills.

The live, 50-minute, interactive sessions are held at different times and on different days throughout term, so you can access what you need, when you need it. We offer both on-campus and online options; check out the schedule. You can do as many as you like.

Organised by the Centre for Languages, Culture and Communication, we have classes in various languages, ranging from Arabic, French and German. to BSL, Hindi and Spanish, as well as a huge range of arts and humanities courses.

We have day schools as well, including day trips this autumn to the medieval sites of Canterbury, Faversham and London, and day classes in topics including Christopher Wren’s architecture and art therapy.
