Student Testimonials

Having studied at this school was an excellent experience for me. The atmosphere is amazing, the staff are so professional and helpful. The teachers are excellent and I had the opportunity not only to improve my English, but also the chance to get to know the culture in the UK and made new friends from different countries. I am so grateful to The English Language Centre, I feel more confident now. Kate’s school has contribute a lot to my life, that’s why I recommend it, the TELC exceeded my expectations. You will not regret :) I loved it.
