The best way to learn English is to immerse yourself in it fully. Everyday interactions with local people will provide you with opportunities to improve your listening, reading, and speaking skills outside the classroom. Here are some tips for making the most of your course and of your experience of London.
Before you arrive, review the grammar and vocabulary you already know. This will refresh your mind and set you up to start learning again. Watch films and TV series in English to familiarise yourself with the sound of the language. Students often find listening the most challenging when they arrive in the UK and it takes a few days to get used to the different accents and dialects. Consider taking online lessons before coming to boost your confidence and help you feel more comfortable speaking to Londoners from the moment you arrive.
Social events are perfect for practising your new language skills in a relaxed environment. Choose activities from our social programme, for example, museum visits, trips to interesting neighbourhoods, meals in restaurants and pubs, and fun activities such as bowling and the cinema. These trips help you learn about local culture in London, and stimulate conversations with your fellow students.
During the school day, use breaks and lunchtime to chat with other students in your class and from other courses. Be confident, and practise whenever you can. It is natural to feel shy, but remember, all the other students will also be practising with you!
