Whether you want to learn English or the local Arabic language, with the home tuition programme offered by HLI you will be able to study intensively at your teacher’s home in the very modern Dubai on a schedule of 15 lessons per week. Learners of either language will be able to put their language skills to the test whenever they’re out and about in the city because the vast majority of residents speak both of these languages. Dubai is well-known for being the most westernised city in the United Arab Emirates, in the sense that it has some of the most lax cultural norms when it comes to the consumption of alcohol, although you will still have to exercise discretion and follow the laws when it comes to these social situations. This is a city best suited to those who love a busy metropolis, with infinite shopping and restaurant experiences on practically every street. Dubai has a reputation for being extremely safe, so you will be able to explore this city with peace of mind. Local Organisers employed by HLI work in Dubai to respond to students’ issues and concerns with their home tuition programmes, if there are any. The school encourages you not to hesitate to get in touch if necessary. The original and most popular programme for adults. The programme completely immerses you in the target language and culture. You enjoy full board accommodation, private language lessons, and free time outside lessons and mealtimes to explore on your own or share the daily life of your host family. Your host family will show you around the area, local shops, public transport, and help you organise excursions and activities during your stay. Learn your target language fast with an intensive language programme. Choose from 15, 20, 25, or 30 hours of one-to-one language lessons with your host teacher per week.

‘Build confidence, work hard and have fun – Learn how to use English more effectively in real-life situations’ The General English semi intensive course is 20 lessons in the morning or the afternoon plus one extra lesson per day (e.g. functional language/pronunciation/writing/authentic listening/speaking and discussion) The additional lesson builds on language from the main sessions with a focus on a particular area e.g. writing or functional English for real-life situations. The General English programme develops your English language and communication skills, giving you the confidence and ability to function in everyday situations. Through a communicative approach, you will practise your listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. With General English Semi-intensive Courses, there are also many opportunities to learn these skills in a variety of ‘real-life’ situations. You will also be able to improve your pronunciation and develop your grammar and vocabulary range from a General English Intensive - 40 Course. English Path offers six levels of General English Courses from Beginner to Advanced. Our Beginner level class accepts students with very little exposure to English. For example, students who have not yet acquired a single word. No one’s level is too low. Lower level students may also choose to increase their progress by taking additional 1-1 classes. In contrast, our Advanced General English class is for students with high level communicative skills. Some students may also consider an intensive course to accelerate their learning or go on to study an examination preparation course. For those students who would like more time to explore the city in which they’re studying, we recommend the General English 20 lessons course.
