Total immersion in English! Progress at twice the speed and half the cost!
Our programme combines intensive tuition with an interactive stay with an educated English-speaking family - English at All Times (EAT)©. Students are constantly encouraged to speak and think in English, both in the classroom and with a family committed to providing extra linguistic support and to making the UK experience productive and enjoyable. This means total immersion in English and therefore rapid results. Progress, we maintain, can be made at twice the speed and half the cost.
