Course content
Students follow a daily programme of English language lessons in the morning, while afternoons are devoted to pursuing cultural excursions with new friends.
All students receive 15 hours a week of English tuition however, even during the afternoon activities, students are encouraged to practise English.
Each afternoon, students can explore a new part of Edinburgh and the South of Scotland. The best thing about the course is that the class curriculum is integrated into the afternoon activities. There is also a lot to learn about Scotland’s famous Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace and much more.
Each week there is one full day excursion further afield so students can make the most of their time in Scotland and see the highland mountains, castles and lochs. There is a full programme in the evenings too, from quizzes to fashion shows to talent competitions.
