Academic Language and Communication Skills (ALACS)

CELE students in a classroom with teacher

Every year our courses and one-to-one consultations help thousands of students to achieve their academic potential in their degree studies. 

 
 


Not sure what you need to improve?

The Centre for English Language Education (CELE) has developed a self-assessment tool for important academic communication skills. Why not use it for a quick check to see if you need to brush up on key academic writing, reading and critical thinking approaches?

“After taking the courses and consultations, I was much more confident and competent when planning my essays and reports in terms of looking for sources, structuring my texts, using academic language and writing critically.”
