Hawthorn English Language Centre

School Introduction

Hawthorn English Language Centre, once affiliated with Hawthorn English at the University of Melbourne, is a vibrant part of the TMC Education Group. We are an English-language school that offers 10-week courses in the following levels: pre-elementary, elementary, pre-intermediate, intermediate, advanced, and IELTS preparation. Our teachers are creative, who insist that the students do the speaking--not them. Students often will be exposed to: field trips throughout Singapore; being videod (and perhaps appearing on You Tube!); engaging in debates and competitions; hearing guest speakers. We're a rigorous, yet friendly and exciting school.

ESL Program Introduction

We offer 10-week courses in pre-elementary, beginner, pre-intermediate, intermediate, English for Academic Purposes, and IELTS preparation. We also offer study tours and training for overseas professionals and government officials.
