Experience Edinburgh Course – 10 days Bildungsurlaub

Please note: the minimum age for students is 30.

This course takes place both inside and outside the traditional classroom setting.

This is a speaking and listening course for people who want to improve their spoken fluency and active listening skills in English and visit Edinburgh at the same time. Walk and talk, look and listen!

Suitable course if you want to improve your general English fluency, English for travel or socialising with international clients or friends. Experience real English in the outdoors.

The first part of the day will take place in the school. After a coffee break we will leave the school to visit a neighbourhood of Edinburgh.

Each day will be focused on a specific part of the city. The English language vocabulary we meet will reflect the places we visit and what we naturally see around us. You will visit a variety of places in and around Edinburgh, these may include historic houses, landmarks, museums, galleries, walking routes and places of cultural interest.

Each class will finish with lunch and a language review.
