Londonschools.info's
purpose is to allow you to select the English school in
London that best suits your needs.
You can evaluate a number of English schools in
accordance with the teaching
method each
of them use (traditional, direct method, Kaplan method,
eclectic, etc.), their location, the prices requested or
the type of courses they offer. Read, compare the offers
and then select the one that suits you. You will then
get a discount of
between 5% to 10% along with an English mobile SIM card
for free! If you already know where you want
to go to study English in London, write to us and tell
us which school you have selected (ex: Stafford,
Mayfair, ABC School, etc.) and let us know your phone
number so we can call you back with a quote for that
school.
Studying English is not a must,
but it's a pleasure that will offer you huge benefits.
English gives you access to a great amount of knowledge,
experiences, places, people and stories that will enrich
your life, let you see things from different
perspectives and make you a better person. The objective
of the English courses offered by Londonschools.info is
to improve the knowledge of English of every participant
and at the same time enable her/him to live a fuller and
more pleasurable life that will be remembered with
nostalgia. As everybody knows, a language is best
learned in the country where it is spoken, as opposed to
in our own country. You certainly can work hard at
home, but studying in Italy won’t be as effective, nor
as exciting, as studying it while living in London or
anywhere else in England!
We offer only schools that are acknowledged by the British
Council, because only these schools can guarantee a
high standard of quality and at the same time bestow
valid certifications for work and/or university.
On our website you will also find information about:
- examinations (PET, FCE, CAE, IELTS), costs and
dates when the examinations will be held;
- types of courses that can be attended (general English
in groups, One-To-One lessons, conversational lessons,
business, courses in preparation for examinations,
etc.);
- teaching methods (direct method, traditional method,
Shenker method, humanistic method, etc.);
- what it means for a school to be acknowledged by the
British Council;
- which social programs are offered by the schools;
- how to be ready to start living your adventure in
London.
In these pages you will find answers to the most
frequently asked questions which we have received
over the years; questions you are interested in, such
as:
When can I start the English course? Usually
every Monday.
How much in advance must I book my course? At
least a week before your departure, but 2 weeks is
preferable and in peak season it is best to book at
least 1 month ahead.
What will happen if I cancel my booked course? Will
I get a refund? The reimbursement of the paid amount
depends on the policy of the individual school. As a
rule, you will only lose the amount that you paid in
advance to confirm the booking.
Can I postpone my course? Usually yes, but
rescheduling has to be done at least a month in advance.

What nationalities and ages are the school’s students? The
students come from all over the world. The minimum age
to participate in a course by oneself is 16 years,
otherwise the student would need to be accompanied by an
adult.
How many students per class? From 12 to 14
students.
Is it possible to book the accommodation as
well,
and how
much would that cost? The
schools will provide accommodation in apartment
complexes, with local families and at times in rooms for
rent in apartments to be shared (“flat share”). If
accommodation is needed in London, that must also be
specified in the form used to
collect information.
It is possible to book the course only, the
accommodation only or both. Accommodations do not have
to be combined with the courses and they are not located
inside the school. Prices vary based upon the selected
choice and will be no less than 90 pounds per week for a
double room to be shared in an apartment for students,
or no less than 130 pounds for a single occupancy room.
Accommodation with a family, in a single room, costs
160-180 pounds per week. Read more about renting
in London.
