A little bit about us …

We provide further education to those who are looking to improve themselves and expand their horizons (linguistic and cultural). As an established international language centre in the heart of Edinburgh, we strive to the best of our abilities to deliver functional and appealing English courses for all levels.

Our wish is for all of our foreign students to integrate, understand, and appreciate British and Scottish culture, fall in love with the awe-inspiring landscapes available all around us (in and outside of the city); explore, engage and grow fond of the art, the sounds, the festivals, the ‘banter’, all the different customs and ways of life, as well as learning the language of course!
