Smile Community Colleges?

Hello,

I'm an Aussie who has been living in HK now for 5 months. I'm not working this year and I'm keen to do some part time study purely for self-improvement & enjoyment. I'm looking for any sort of community college that might teach in English?

I'm already studying Cantonese at Berlitz and Floral Design at HK Academy of Floral Arrangement. I'd love to do a series of classes in Ancient History, Art Theory, Literature or Film Studies, however I'm a bit stumped as to where to look. Is there anything like a Community College or Advanced Education facility here where you can enroll in special interest courses? Or are the Universities my best option?

Would love to hear of any suggestions. Thanks!

Thanks KIA. Will check it out. For others checking this thread, I've also found some really interesting possibilities with HKU Space. They have a plethora of short courses on varied topics. Link below.

501 -- the problem with space is the levels of english. If you speak cantonese you'll be ok.
