Colleague or College? I think I'd read recently that the British government was offering free english classes for new immigrants. Try to contact your local community center or library.

YOu can contact the Learning Skills Council for your area or the government website http://www10.learndirect-advice-search. ... e?a=260405 and do a search from their website for ESOL (english for speakers of other languages) classes.

The class is normally for a year and starts at entry level. Unfortunately, due to popularity, the classes get full very quick and you need to get your wife's name down quickly. If they are fully booked, put her name on the waiting list as not everyone shows up for class and she might be able to attend.
The college I work at do a eligibility test (i.e. check on status) then book a language test to determine her level and would recommend from there which class would be most suitable.
I wish your wife success in this.

irfan594, you don't disclose your location in the UK, which is within your rights, but in the absence of that information you are not going to get any information from those living in that area.

Can you say what town or city you live in, or near?
