Summer language course
Welcome to England!
Language course and fun? Of course!
Well this is actually self-evident. But what matters most to us is the quality: reliable support in the host city, top class language courses, carefully selected host families and an attractive and diverse leisure program. That’s why our summer language courses have been so successful for many years.
Join us for our next summer course in Eastbourne for 2023!

Eastbourne (Southern England)
England is cool. Learn the most spoken language in the world with us in Eastbourne.Eastbourne is situated half an hour from the city of Brighton and one hour 30 minutes from London by train. The nearest airport is Gatwick. It is often referred to as the ‘Sun Trap of the South’ due to the fact that it is reputedly the sunniest place in England.
Only few minutes away from the beach and the train station you will find our school located in the city center of Eastbourne. We will be helping you with the organisation of your travel arrangements. More information about Eastbourne? www.visiteastbourne.com

Your host family in Eastbourne
You will be staying in a typical English family who will have been selected by us to meet with your character and requirements.Our host families are a part of the larger ‘family’ that extends from the school and usually by the end of their stay, the students give us overwhelmingly positive feedback about their experience. The host families are all DBS checked and all carry the appropriate licensing.
Clearly sometimes not all students get on with all host families and if, after some time, you feel that you are really not quite getting on and are not happy, we can always suggest an alternative family. And if a problem or misunderstanding occurs, we are always here to help!
