Preparatory course in English

SWPS University in Poland offers a Preparatory course in English, a non-degree program taught in English over two semesters, with tuition set at 3200 EUR per year. The course takes a modern and practical approach to language learning, so participants can build their English skills quickly. Classes run Monday through Thursday, leaving Fridays free for the Polish Prep School or other events at SWPS University. Coursebooks come from Oxford University Press, with the cost built into the course fee. Each group works with two teachers, giving students exposure to different accents and teaching styles. Periodic assessments track progress and flag areas that need more work. Students who complete the course and pass the final exam receive a language proficiency certificate, which opens the way to further study in English at university level. Preparatory English courses like this one serve students who plan to enter degree programs taught in English but need to strengthen their language skills first. The curriculum typically covers grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, listening and speaking, along with academic skills such as essay writing, presentations and exam techniques. Graduates of such programs commonly move on to bachelor's or master's studies in fields ranging from business and psychology to engineering and the sciences, where strong English proficiency supports coursework, seminars and exams. For international students, a structured preparatory year also offers a chance to adjust to life in Poland, meet other incoming students, and become familiar with the university environment before starting a full degree program at SWPS University.
