An integrated approach to language learning
On all our courses, we design individual study plans – using the six principles of The Bell Way – to help you maximise your time at Bell and achieve your learning goals.
Be challenged and supported
Our unique learning approach – The Bell Way – is core to everything we do at Bell. It was developed by our academic team alongside an Emeritus Professor from the University of Cambridge. It is based on six core principles that shape all our programmes.
