OUR APPROACH

Summer school is the perfect opportunity to forget about exams and to focus on communicating in English. We encourage students to put their knowledge into practice, meaning they enjoy their language lessons, improve rapidly and feel proud of their progress. We call this ‘Serious Study’. Our lessons are complimented by excursions to some of the best places for children and teens to visit in London and the UK. Fun activities are also provided on-site and our famous English + Multi-Activity courses offer students something out of the ordinary every day.

OUR LESSONS

Lessons help students improve their speaking, listening and pronunciation skills, giving them confidence to communicate more fluently in English. We teach language along with the soft skills that students need for success in modern life, such as teamwork, negotiation, debate, problem solving, presentation and leadership. We aim to promote a love of language learning that will stay with students for many years to come.
