“Going along to the Welsh in the Workplace courses since September has enabled me to go about it properly and I love it now!”

Glamorgan Welsh for Adults Centre

Croeso! Welcome to the Glamorgan Welsh for Adults Centre.

The Centre is one of six dedicated Welsh language centres in Wales responsible for co-ordinating Welsh for adults in the community and making the language accessible to adult learners within each region.

The Centre, based at the University of Glamorgan, provides community courses throughout its three main target regions of Rhondda Cynon Taf, Merthyr Tydfil and Bridgend. Its mission statement and goal is to deliver high-standard courses which include interactive and fun opportunities for learners at all levels to develop and learn the language.

The highly-experienced group of tutors plan each course appropriately to match each level's requirements and aim to meet student expectations.

During an Estyn inspection in May 2005, the learners were awarded Grade 1 – the highest grade possible.

This level of teaching and provision reflects the enthusiasm and encouragement provided at the Centre. The tutors not only aim to support the learners on their journey, but they also channel a lot of their energy into providing opportunities to make the students feel confident and able to use their new linguistic skills beyond the classroom.

The Centre caters for all ages and all levels – from complete beginners to fluent speakers who wish to brush up on their written skills.

For further information about the courses available in the community, please visit our courses page or contact us at the Centre.

We are also responsible for delivering Welsh in the Workplace courses that are tailored for each workplace, plus courses which focus on the needs of parents with children at bilingual schools.
