February in the UK
February has brought us some of the worst ice and snow for years. A perfect excuse for sitting by the fire with a laptop and enjoying some Gapfillers short stories or poems!
As February also brings us Valentine's day then poems would be appropriate.Have a look at the archive for a good range of topics and poets.
Fleetham Lodge
(see picture above)
This is our training centre in North Yorkshire where we run intensive residential courses for groups of 4 students (12 on a day course)
We have some new and exciting courses planned for 2009.
Set out in the country, yet easily accessible by air, train or road, it is the perfect venue for truly focused study.

Themes
The theatre is providing us with our current vocabulary and subject matter. We hope you are enjoying these. The exercises on Macbeth today introduce you to the plot and characters of the play - now try and see it for real! Or have a go at the Cinderella listening exercise.
There are lots of theatre words too - used in every day contexts.
To find out about other themes planned on the site have a look at the events calendar.

We have been busy indexing all the words and phrases (800+ now!). You will find them indexed alphabetically and under themes.
