As a Foundation Year student, you will be fully supported by the dedicated ISC staff. As you progress onto your degree course, the high levels of support you receive will be maintained by the University’s Student Welfare Services.
Help with English
All undergraduate and postgraduate programmes are delivered in English. That’s why the University offer English ‘help’ classes throughout the academic year, which can give you additional support with writing essays, extending your vocabulary and improving your grammatical skills. These classes are free to all LJMU students and offered twice a week during term time at locations across the university.
