I've spent 10 months studying at WSE, during that time i were there I've improved my language a lot , the good and nice thing about is the way of teaching and how they manage the school to be , the school helps you to make a new friend by the activities they have, during my study journey in the school i have made loads of friends from different nationalities and backgrounds which is was good to me to knowledge my self about other cultures, my experience there were one of the best and will stick in my mind and it's will help me with many things even to how communicate with other people.
I want to say thanks to all the teachers that helps me with my study and i want to say sorry if i have annoyed any one in the school during my studies there, if i got the chance to come again to WSE I wouldn't miss it.

studied General EnglishWhy Wimbledon School of English?
I found out about WSE by means of an Agency in Argentina and I could not be happier with my decision. I spent the coldest month in the year here but I could not have felt a warmer ambience with such warm people.
In aspects of education, the teachers are well trained to make every moment in class positive, productive and also fun. Of course there is homework, as in every school, but I do not regret spending a bit in the afternoons doing homework as it kept me with energy for learning and it was a way of learning more independently.
The facilities in the school are also an item I must highlight. Everything including WI-FI, a study room, a coffee machine, a bar and a beautiful garden to spend time in; helped me feel at home.
Not like in any school, this school also has a social program in order for students to get to know places in London and to meet other students in different places. There are sport activities, tours through the most interesting places in London, nights out for over-aged student and more. I had the opportunity to take part in a theatre excursion to see Russian Ballet performing “Swan Lake” for an excellent prize as the school gets discounts.
Definitely I had the time of my life, experienced a lot of new things and learned a lot so I am looking forward to go back to my place in the world as soon as I have the opportunity.

The time passed so quickly. The teachers and staff are really welcoming and you get to know so many people from different cultures. You learn a lot from them too so it's not only English you learn. The lessons aren't boring because you do a lot of enjoyable activities
I suggest attending this school during summer because you can have a really good experience.
I hope to come back next summer!
