Description of the opportunity:
Audacious School of Language aims to provide a welcoming space for people to improve their English.
We realise how hard it can be to learn a language with little opportunity to either practise or ask questions. Learning English is important in enabling people to access employment, and education, make friends and manage day-to-day living.
