Whether you are looking for language courses abroad for adults, want to take a language test such as one of the Cambridge Certificates (B2 First, C1 Advanced, C2 Proficiency; formerly FCE, CAE, CPE), or simply need an IELTS, TOEFL or GMAT test for your studies, we have the right suggestions for you. We can also arrange Business English courses for you.

Your benefits with English in Britain
- The best place to learn English is England or Ireland: lessons take place in an entirely English-speaking environment. This means you learn English not only at the language school but also in your free time, as you get to know the country and its people. Lessons in an English-speaking country are therefore much more effective than language lessons at home or at school.
- The teachers’ qualifications speak for themselves too: all teachers are native speakers and have completed professional training as language teachers.
- We present a range of schools that match your wishes and expectations, taking into account factors such as the type of course, class size, the atmosphere and location of the school, the leisure activities on offer, your travel plans and, last but not least, the price.
- The British Isles also have a great deal to offer visitors – combine your language course abroad with a visit to the sights of the region.
- Nowhere else offers such a wide choice of English courses. With our help you are guaranteed to find the best course for you.
