A Personal and Caring English School on the Coast – Just 1 hour from London
LanguageUK is accredited by the British Council and specialises in quality courses for individuals and small groups. We prefer to focus on providing expert language teaching for a small number of students at a time, which allows us to offer a more personal experience than many larger schools. We believe this creates a relaxed atmosphere that promotes learning and fast progress. Quality training, comfortable surroundings and a lot of personal attention on our English courses mean we can deliver excellent results quickly. We are currently offering courses in general English, private courses, preparation for First Certificate (FCE), Cambridge Advanced (CAE), IELTS, teachers’ refresher courses, English for the pharmaceutical industry and ‘English with Golf’ courses.
LanguageUK is situated in the heart of Broadstairs on the Kent coast. During your stay here you will see its beautiful beaches, charming Victorian buildings and learn about its historical links with Charles Dickens.
We believe the relaxed atmosphere of the town, combined with the personal service and quality training we provide, facilitate fast progress. We are also just over an hour from London by train and 30 minutes from the historical cathedral city of Canterbury and the beautiful Kent countryside, often referred to as ‘The Garden of England’.
If you want to receive more time and attention, both in and out of class, then LanguageUK is the perfect choice for you.
Further information on all courses offered by LanguageUK is available at ASHLEY’S. Should you wish to apply our staff are happy to assist with the application procedure.
