London Experience Program is a special programme of General English combined with social and cultural activities. You have a chance to relax and make friends as well as learn about the life and culture of London and Britain - and improve your English at the same time!
Choose between an English language course of 15 lessons a week (Monday to Friday 13.45 to 16.45) or 20 lessons a week (Monday to Friday 13.45 to 17.40). The language course develops your General English skills, improving your speaking, listening, reading and writing, as well as pronunciation and grammar.
There is an emphasis on communication and we use authentic materials so that you can put your English to practical use in the situations where you need it.
Our teachers are well qualified, experienced and enthusiastic and we have excellent facilities for independent study. In the mornings the programme includes a series of activities and excursions, each accompanied by a teacher or guide.
There is also a separate comprehensive social programme open to all our students. As well as excursions to famous places like Cambridge, Canterbury, Brighton and Stonehenge, there are international parties, barbecues and quiz nights at the college, plus trips to the theatre to see top London musicals.
