English for Ukrainians

Taunton Welcomes Refugees are pleased to announce the extension of their program of free English lessons for Ukrainians for the academic year running from September 2024 to July 2025. We will offer three classes: two are in-person at the Pre-Intermediate (A2) and Intermediate (B1)  levels. Classes are on both Monday and Wednesday mornings, students are expected to attend twice a week  at the Quaker Meeting House in central Taunton (TA1 4EP). The third class is online and is held in the early-evening on Monday and Wednesday. Again, students are expected to attend twice a week.

  • Pre-intermediate class: 9:30 – 11:00.
  • Intermediate class: 11:15 – 12:45.
  • Online class: 18:00 – 19:30.

We are very grateful to our wonderful qualified English teacher, Katya, who will be leading the classes. Also these classes would not be possible without the significant support of Somerset Council that has provided the funding required to be able to offer these popular courses.

We are very pleased that we have been able to offer this much need support to our guests from Ukraine. The classes started in September 2022, and have been running since then.

If you would like to know about the classes or are interested in signing up then please email the following details to

Potential students will be assessed by Katya to ensure that they are assigned to the correct class.
