We are proud to offer a wide range of tutored, self-study and blended learning courses to refugee, asylum seeker and migrant communities across the UK and internationally.
Courses are delivered online to enable learners to work with expert teachers and study content wherever they are. Courses are tailored to the needs and English level of learners.
Clients to date include Strategic Migration Partnerships in the East of England, Yorkshire and the West Midlands, RefuAid, Talent Beyond Boundaries, the Lincolnshire Refugee Doctor Project, Time to Help UK, and Groundwork.
We support refugee healthcare professionals by giving free access to our online medical English courses and by teaching them to pass the English language tests required to work in the UK.
We support refugees with little or no English by teaching them the language they need to find work and integrate into their communities.
Tuition takes place in SLC’s online classrooms, so enabling our expert teachers to work with students around the country, many of whom cannot get to traditional classrooms because of childcare commitments or inadequate public transport, for example.
While the refugees we work with have incredibly different stories to tell of how they came to the UK, they are united in their wish to settle here, get to know their neighbours and contribute to their communities and the wider nation.
