About Bowden Hall College
 
Bowden Hall College, founded in 1929, is a private adult education establishment with over 77 years unrivalled experience of home training methods.
 
Because of many requests from people who do not wish to go to personal classes or seminars, and because the subject lends itself ideally to individual study at home, the New Course in Practical English is now offered by post to anyone who wishes to become a more effective speaker, conversationalist and writer.

Bowden Hall College also offers a range of other courses including Dr Bruno Furst’s famous Course in Memory and Concentration (You Can Remember), Effective Speaking and Writing, The Realization System and the Wade World Trade Import & Export Course.
 
The New Course in Practical English is updated on a regular basis by its tutorial board. A full list of board members is to be found on the right. Many of the names may be familiar to you. Rachel Campbell-Johnston, for instance, is the Times newspaper’s poetry correspondent and holds a doctorate in poetry from Edinburgh University; Frances Donnelly, an author, was, for a decade, the main presenter of Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour; James Knox is a biographer and was formerly publisher of The Spectator magazine; Rowley Leigh is a television chef and author; and Jonathan Self (though not as well known as his brother, Will) is a Times journalist, author and radio presenter. This, then, is the calibre of board members.
 
Additionally, Bowden Hall College employs over 20 specialist educationalists and teachers to act as personal tutors to our students. Their names are not well known, but their careers speak for themselves. Between them they have taught at many famous educational institutes including Imperial College, International House, London University, Manchester Grammar School, Sussex University, and Westminster School.
 
You would be hard pressed to find as dedicated or expert a faculty. Remember, too, they are here to serve you at no extra charge for a full two years after you have enrolled on the New Course in Practical English. If you had to pay for this feature alone it would cost you many, many times more than the course.
