The London School- 3 months in!

Stafford House School of English London opened its doors 12 weeks ago and it has been an exciting whirlwind 3 months! We now have 60 students studying with us from 28 different countries. The most exciting thing has been bringing more and more technology into the classroom and we were recently commended by the British Council inspectors as having “the most proficient group of teachers using Interactive Technology in the classroom” that he had ever seen. A fine accolade but the teachers feel they are just getting started and there is much more to come.

The IELTS exam has been one of the main goals of our current group of students and alongside our well-subscribed IELTS preparation class, taught by the popular Peter, we also have a Pre-IELTS option running in the afternoons which has proved popular with students studying at the Pre-Intermediate level. We look forward to reporting on the successes of our students in future blog posts.

The Certificate of Business Course started this week in London with 7 students subscribed- a good beginning and we are lucky to have Bridget teaching the course, bringing all her experience of training executives in South America and the UK to the classroom. This week they are focussing on a mixture of making their written communication more effective and delivering presentations in English. We’d like to wish our resident business English students good luck on the course!
