Find English classes in Devon

We recognise that in a large, rural county like Devon, local English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) classes can be hard to find. We are working hard, with partners from all sectors, to improve the situation and to increase the number of English classes that are available.

New classes at further education colleges, Learn Devon centres, with voluntary and community groups and organisations are starting all the time so please check this space regularly for updates.

We are actively working to set up regular ESOL classes, family learning opportunities and English conversation groups in several towns around East Devon, including Sidmouth, Exmouth and Honiton.

If you are interested in volunteering to help with these initiatives, particularly if you have any teaching experience, please get in touch by emailing dave.wright@devon.gov.uk.

We’ll be posting information soon about new ESOL classes that are due to start in Tiverton and Cullompton in June 2022.
