BOURNEMOUTH, ENGLAND, February 26, 2014 (Press-News.org) ETC International College, that has been helping students to improve their English Language Skills for Business and other areas since 1989, now adds English Plus Courses to its curriculum. By enrolling onto these courses, students can learn and improve other areas of their interests along with General or Business English skills.
The current range of Plus courses available at the Bournemouth-based Language Training Center are: English plus tennis, horse riding, dancing, golf, photography, and alternative therapies.
"We realize that, apart from learning English, students have other areas of interest as well and it will obviously be encouraging and attractive to them if we bring some add-ons. These English Plus courses are designed to perfection to help these students pursue their other interests along with brushing their language skills," says the course director for the ETC International College.
In each of these courses, 20 sessions per week are kept for general English training. For the additional programs, 5 sessions per week are allotted to horse riding, tennis, dancing, therapies and photography; and 3 sessions per week to golf.
"These additional programs are far better than the programs available elsewhere. We want to help students by offering 'the best' at affordable cost. So not only students will benefit by learning a skill, they'll also save money. For example, by joining English Plus course with Golf as an add-on, students can access top golf courses without paying high membership or green fees," says a spokesperson for ETC International College.
Each session for these courses is of 45-minutes duration; and the minimum age required to enroll onto these courses is 18.
"I am eager to join English Plus course in Business English and Dance as an add-on. I want to start a dance academy in future and so this course can help me a lot," says Stella Joseph, Kazakhstan.
Bookings for these courses have started, said the spokesperson for ETC International College.

Novel blood screen reveals risk of dying among healthy people
2014-02-26
A new screening technology reveals a signature of mortality in blood samples.
Researchers have identified four biomarkers that help to identify people at high risk of dying from any disease within the next five years.
Researchers from Finland and Estonia have discovered novel biological markers that are strongly indicative of risk of dying from any disease within the near future. Blood samples from over 17 000 generally healthy people were screened for more than a hundred different biomolecules. The health status of these study volunteers was followed for several years. ...
Brainstem discovered as important relay site after stroke
2014-02-26
Around 16,000 people in Switzerland suffer a stroke every year. Often the result of a sudden occlusion of a vessel supplying the brain, it is the most frequent live-threatening neurological disorder. In most cases, it has far-reaching consequences for survivors. Often the stroke sufferers have to cope with handicaps and rehabilitation is a long process. The brain does, however, have a "considerable capacity for regeneration" explains Lukas Bachmann from the Brain Research Institute of the University of Zurich. As member of Professor Martin Schwab's research team, he found ...
More intensive radiotherapy is better than less for localized prostate cancer
2014-02-26
A radiotherapy regime involving higher doses of radiation is a better option than having lower doses for men with localised prostate cancer, the 10-year results of the largest trial of its kind have shown.
Having 37 rounds, or fractions, of radiotherapy at 74 Gray (Gy) – compared with 32 fractions at 64 Gy – controlled the disease more effectively and reduced the chance that men would need follow-up hormone-deprivation therapy, which can have long-term side-effects.
The findings, published in The Lancet Oncology today (Wednesday), come from the major RT01 phase III ...
Skin cancer risk may have driven evolution of black skin
2014-02-26
Early humans may have evolved black skin to protect against a very high risk of dying from ultraviolet light (UV)-induced skin cancer, a new analysis concludes.
Skin cancer has usually been rejected as the most likely selective pressure for the development of black skin because of a belief that it is only rarely fatal at ages young enough to affect reproduction.
But a new paper, published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, cites evidence that black people with albinism from parts of Africa with the highest UV radiation exposure, and where humans first evolved, almost ...
Smithsonian scientists solve 'sudden death at sea' mystery
2014-02-26
Mass strandings of whales have puzzled people since Aristotle. Modern-day strandings can be investigated and their causes, often human-related, identified. Events that happened millions of years ago, however, are far harder to analyze—frequently leaving their cause a mystery. A team of Smithsonian and Chilean scientists examined a large fossil site of ancient marine mammal skeletons in the Atacama Desert of Northern Chile—the first definitive example of repeated mass strandings of marine mammals in the fossil record. The site reflected four distinct strandings over time, ...
Brain cell activity regulates Alzheimer's protein
2014-02-26
Increased brain cell activity boosts brain fluid levels of a protein linked to Alzheimer's disease, according to new research from scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.
Tau protein is the main component of neurofibrillary tangles, one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease. It has been linked to other neurodegenerative disorders, including frontotemporal dementia, supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration.
"Healthy brain cells normally release tau into the cerebrospinal fluid and the interstitial fluid that surrounds them, but ...
SMA unveils how small cosmic seeds grow into big stars
2014-02-26
New images from the Smithsonian's Submillimeter Array (SMA) telescope provide the most detailed view yet of stellar nurseries within the Snake nebula. These images offer new insights into how cosmic seeds can grow into massive stars.
Stretching across almost 100 light-years of space, the Snake nebula is located about 11,700 light-years from Earth in the direction of the constellation Ophiuchus. In images from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope it appears as a sinuous, dark tendril against the starry background. It was targeted because it shows the potential to form many massive ...
Follow-up care for older breast cancer survivors needs to be all-encompassing
2014-02-26
Older women who have overcome breast cancer are likely to struggle with heart disease, osteoporosis and hypertension further on in their lives. Whether these conditions occur or not is influenced by the treatment that patients received to fight cancer, their overall weight and their age. Breast cancer survivors therefore should watch their weight and get regular exercise so that they can enjoy a high quality of life. These findings, by lead author Nadia Obi of the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, who collaborated with the group of Prof. Chang-Claude from the ...
New research indicates causal link between vitamin D, serotonin synthesis and autism
2014-02-26
February 26, 2014 - Oakland, CA – A new study by Rhonda Patrick, PhD and Bruce Ames, PhD of Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute (CHORI) demonstrates the impact that Vitamin D may have on social behavior associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Dr. Patrick and Dr. Ames show that serotonin, oxytocin, and vasopressin, three brain hormones that affect social behavior, are all activated by vitamin D hormone. Autism, which is characterized by abnormal social behavior, has previously been linked to low levels of serotonin in the brain and to low vitamin D levels, ...
