Opportunities to learn English in the UK

The UK is a world leader in English language teaching. Over 600,000 people every year go to the UK to learn the language in its natural home. Why not join them? Our frequently asked questions will help you learn more about the UK language schools, courses available and other information you need. If you need more information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

I WOULD LIKE TO DO AN ENGLISH COURSE IN BRITAIN. CAN YOU SEND ME A LIST OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE SCHOOLS?

You can use the English in the UK online database, which comprises English language schools accredited by the British Council. The website has a search function so you can look for schools, for example, according to type of course and location.

 DO YOU OFFER ENGLISH LANGUAGE COURSES AT THE BRITISH COUNCIL IN KOSOVO?

No, we don't offer English language courses at the British Council Kosovo.

HOW MUCH WILL A COURSE COST ON AVERAGE?

This depends on several factors such as the type, the duration and the location of the course. To give an example: a general course of English comprising 15 hours tuition per week and accommodation plus one full day and one half day excursion per week in the town of Southampton in the south of England costs between £244 - £250 per week. To view this and other examples, please have a look at the English UK website.

CAN I LIVE WITH A BRITISH FAMILY WHILE DOING MY COURSE?
Many British Council accredited language schools provide homestay accommodation for their pupils. To find out more, have a look at English in the UK website.
CAN YOU RECOMMEND ANY PARTICULAR ENGLISH LANGUAGE SCHOOL?

The British Council has accredited many language schools in the UK and therefore cannot recommend one single school.

'Accredited' means schools are inspected at regular intervals to ensure that they meet our quality standards.

Have a look at our English in the UK website - you will find a variety of search categories to help you find the language school that suit your needs.

WHERE CAN I FIND INFORMATION ABOUT SUMMER SCHOOLS AND SUMMER CAMPS?

The term summer school covers a wide area of topics. Some summer schools offer only English-language courses, some offer English-language courses combined with other activities, while others still concentrate on English literature.

Summer camps are intended for young people who live together in a camp or youth hostel and participate in a programme of sports and other recreational activities. The following websites provide a great deal of information about the various possibilities for you or your child’s summer:

  British Council accredited language schools
  Summer Academy Study Holidays
  British Activity Holiday Association (summer camps)
  Summer Fun 4 Kids
WILL I NEED A VISA?
