Über UCT English Language Centre
The English Language Centre (ELC) is located right in the centre of Cape Town, giving you easy access to all the attractions, shops, and cafes. It also offers a wide range of English language courses to suit your needs. Accommodation is provided either in a student residence (only 18-minute walk from the school) or with local host families, which is an amazing way to get to know the South-African culture.
At ELC we use a student-centered approach to teaching and learning, putting the student's individual language learning needs at the heart of what we do. We believe students learn English best when engaged in real-life communication activities, which help them develop strategies for communicative competence.
ELC also organises weekly social activities, so you can explore Cape Town and the nearby area with your friends. In addition, you also have access to over 100 UCT student societies and over 40 sports clubs (incl. Film Society, Wine and Cultural Society or Surfing, Wakeboarding and Football club.)
ELC focuses on your individual needs and learning style, and gets you communicating confidently from the start. Whether you want to learn English for conversational or business use, or to complete the IELTS, TOEFL, FCE or CAE exams, there is an English course tailored to your needs.

studierte Allgemeines EnglischGreat learn experience!!!
It is quite dificult to find the balance between learning and fun. However, in my experience in Kurus English one could say they really have created that balance. It was very interesting to see how the language excursions work - integrating the language with the culture and the reality of the country. It was a great learning experience and also different. Kurus English has a very profesional adminstrative team and a highly qualified teachers team who make all that possible.

studierte Allgemeines EnglischUnforgettable
I took part in a two weeks course in April 2013. It was just great. Everybody did a great job. I learned much and had lots of fun. The excursions gave a great and vivid impression of Cape Town, and I met a lot of interesting people. I would never have seen all this on my own. I especially enjoyed the excursions dealing with food and cuisine and even cooked boboti several times at home.
Shortly: I had a phantastic time at Kurus and in Cape Town which left marks on me. A warm "Thank you" to all staff at Kurus. I can and will recommend your school!
All the best from Germany.
