Adult Learning Groups

We have beginner IT Groups running in Ayr, Girvan, Maybole and Troon. These are for learners over the age of 16 who want to get started using a computer, going on the internet and sending emails.

There are 2 reading groups in Ayr and one in Girvan. This is where a member of staff reads a story and then the learners discuss it – what they liked or disliked, whether it was any good or not. Sometimes they will discuss what they think the ending might be or the meanings of words from the stories. The groups are fun, interesting and a good way of meeting people and becoming more confident in groups at a pace that suits the learners.

We have a CV group in the Learning Shop on a Tuesday between 11 and 1 for people who need to update or create a CV from scratch.

There’s also a group who meet on Mondays in the Learning Shop for Supported Education and they work on things like telling time and counting money.

For more information on all of our ESOL Groups (English for Speakers of Other Languages) please get in touch. The group abilities range from complete beginner through to those that are ready to start college. We have groups in the Learning Shop and the John Pollock Centre in Ayr.

If you are a learner who would like more information or if you know someone who might be interested in being referred please give us a ring on 01292 263304 to find out more.
