studied English Summer Courses

Being an UAL\'s student

It has been a great pleasure for me having attended the general english summer course at UAL, I have found the organisation of the course satisfacting, the teachers were very well prepared (I mean, mine was) and my teacher knew how to deal with students, I enjoyed every moment studying there; honestly If I come back to UAL in summer, I will add to my english course another specific course (design, photography..) because this is the real field of expertise of UAL, so I suggest you to do the same.

English plus digital photography

Thanks to UAL I made incredible friends with whom I keep in touch to this day. I had an amazing teacher whose name I unfortunately don't recall, but who always strived to combine English with dynamic activities: he took us to the museum of brands, packaging and advertising; we watched the first episode of a series that explored topics such as gender warfare and religion (afterwards we had to write an essay about it); we discussed photography by watching a movie about david bailey. It was a fruitful experience I'll always hold dear.

studied General English

Very nice course

The general English course at Language Center is really cool. First of all the course is situated in a central area in London and inside of a arts college.
Teachers are really good and attentive and also the facilities are great because the building is pretty new and has everything that we need to study including books, wifi and prints.
The low point for me was the course's price that is too high and at summer the school gets too crowded with all the professors being changed by unexperienced ones.

Thanks for your review, Maria. We are sorry that you feel that our pricing is high. We are confident that we offer a very high standard of teaching and facilities and always look at how we can offer more to our students for the money they pay. For example all our students can use the libraries and facilities at the Colleges. We hope that overall you had a good experience and that you keep in touch with us on social media now you’ve left. We look forward to seeing you back in London one day!
