Cursos a tiempo parcial
A. On this course we will look at several different art forms, including painting, digital photography, and printing. The course leads to a diploma in art, and every student will be expected to take the exam. The course is only suitable for those who have studied these art forms before. It is on Mondays at 10am.
B. Do you dream of one day writing your own novel? If so, then this could be the course for you. We will look at how to create believable characters, interesting story lines and beautiful language. You will have to be prepared to do a lot of writing at home, and listen to other people criticise it! Classes are from 2pm to 5pm, Fridays.
C. If you already have some skill and knowledge of art, but are simply out of practice, then this could be the course for you. We will start slowly but by the end of the course classes could be quite challenging so it will not be suitable for beginners. Classes will take place on Thursday mornings and we will be working outdoors in the countryside most of the time.
D. This course explores the poetry and novels of 10 living authors. We will read and discuss the books and then you will be given compositions to write for homework. We will be working towards an examination, and those who pass will get a certificate at the end of the course. The course takes place on Wednesdays at 3pm.
E. Employers these days require basic computer skills and if you don’t have them you are at a big disadvantage compared to other job hunters. This course is only suitable for complete beginners, but with the certificate you get at the end, you should be able to get a good job. The course is on Tuesdays and Thursdays at midday.
F. This course is on Saturdays at 1pm. It covers the basics of digital photography. You will learn how to take fabulous pictures which will impress all your friends with the minimum of effort. There is no exam to revise for at the end, and the only homework will be to take lots of pictures, so you can just relax and enjoy the course.
G. This course will examine the literature of past centuries and look at whether the work is still important in today’s modern world. There will be a lot of homework on this course, mainly reading but also writing essays, so you will have to be prepared for that. The course takes place on Thursday afternoons at 2pm.
H. Our new computer course is suitable for those who have used a computer before but now need to increase their knowledge. It takes place on Wednesdays at 6.30pm. There is an examination at the end and if you pass you will be able to show the qualification to your employer, as it is widely recognised in the business world.
