Business English

Every business is different. But when a company tells us what their English language training needs are, we work with them to develop a course proposal and outline.

And not only will we tailor the course to a company’s needs, but LanguageUK teachers could easily provide the course at the company’s workplace. It really is that simple.

Business English

We offer a diverse social programme. Practising outside the class is a great way to improve your everyday English and enjoy British culture.

There are many places to see and things to do in and around Broadstairs, across east Kent and in London. We like to fi nd out what our students are interested in and try to organise activities accordingly.

We encourage students to take part in a number of events and

clubs with local people to help make the learning experience enjoyable and productive. Local activities include salsa classes, art classes at the local college, paella parties, cookery courses and quiz evenings.

Typical outings include visits to London museums and galleries, trips to pubs and restaurants, and sightseeing and walking tours in and around historic Canterbury, Dover and Broadstairs itself and its beautiful coastline.

You can choose from a wide range of places to stay while you are at LanguageUK. The following options are available to all students and can be arranged on application.

Where to stay during the course

Standard Homestay in BroadstairsStudents have the opportunity to stay with local people in the town.

Being a small school, we can be very selective with our homestay accommodation, to ensure our students are comfortable and welcome.

We believe this really helps our students. Not only can you study English here in England, but you can practise after school and learn more about life here.

A private room and half-board lodging is provided throughout the week. All our homestay options have been

specially chosen by LanguageUK and are regularly visited to ensure standards remain high. They are situated as close to LanguageUK as possible and are either within walking distance from the school or on a direct bus route.

All Homestays provide the following facilities:■ A clean and comfortable private bedroom.■ A place to study either in the bedroom or in a quiet place in the house.■ Weekly laundry facilities at no extra cost.■ Breakfast and dinner every day.■ WiFi internet.

Executive Homestay

This option is recommended for students who are looking for superior rooms. Host families are carefully chosen for the Executive Homestay programme based on experience, accommodation and meals. As in the Standard Homestay programme, a host may be a couple or a single adult with or without children.

Our executive host families live in larger homes, offering each student a private room with ensuite, TV and wifi internet, with breakfast and dinner every day.

We can also cater for students looking for a family with specifi c criteria – for example, vegetarian, with or without children, pets or a private bathroom.
