studied English Summer CoursesKind teachers, nice school
I liked the English course very much. Maybe I think it is not so important for students that need to learn common conversation to attend so many English lessons during the week and do so many homeworks. I watched children shows in the morning and spoke to my Landlady what helped me as well. I enjoyed the school activities (trips to Stonehench, pink-ponk, badminton). All my teachers were fabulous and I remember them often. Thanks, Lenka

studied General EnglishProbably the best London based school of Englis
One of the best schools I've ever been to.The whole course was an amazing experience and not only I've met a lot of new friends, I also learned how to speak English with confidence. Teachers at WSE are not just teachers, but also friends, always there to assist you and offer you additional counsel.
Would definitely recommend!
