In the heart of Cape Town
Learn English at the University of Cape Town
As the world becomes more interconnected, English becomes increasingly important as a tool for global communication. When you enroll in the UCT English Language Centre, you join an international community of students who, like you, have chosen to expand their cultural, academic and professional horizons by learning English with the top University in Africa – the University of Cape Town.
Located in the vibrant, academically diverse Faculty of Humanities at UCT, the English Language Centre at the hub of creativity and innovation. As a UCT student, you will be able to participate in university life and culture, make use of the University’s facilities, and take part in social activities, sports clubs and other societies.
At ELC we use a student-centered approach to teaching and learning, putting the student’s individual language learning needs at the heart of what we do. We believe students learn English best when engaged in real-life communication activities, which help them develop strategies for communicative competence.
