Join our school of English in Torbay
Learn English at the very heart of the English Riviera, the birthplace of Agatha Christie. You can enjoy the sun, go shopping during the day, feast on fresh fish and party into the night! Come to our school of English in Torbay!
With our recently renovated school of English in Torbay, you will notice that this area truly has something for everyone: Paignton’s sandy beaches, Brixham’s fishing port and Torquay’s busy town centre are just some of the options. Likewise, enjoy the water park, beaches, history, go-kart racing, pubs, clubs, restaurants… you name it, we have it! Almost as far south as you can go, and with the best temperatures in Britain, your umbrella will not see very much action.
In and around Torbay, the beautiful scenery and nature will hypnotize you. Furthermore, you will learn English in England with the world famous Dartmoor on the doorstep. However, if you prefer urban life, the historic cities of Plymouth and Exeter are within easy reach. Else, take a day trip to Bath to see the Romans and Jane Austen come to life!
As you can see, LAL Torbay is the perfect place to take an English course during your holiday.

This is one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. I have met people from many parts of the world and the English course has exceeded all my expectations. The teachers are all very well prepared. Moreover, every day they organise activities for students. The school has great facilities, and for sure they will give you all the help you need.
Before this trip, I was very excited because I knew nobody and I didn’t know what would happen, but on the first day, the very nice ladies at the reception took away all these fears. They were really friendly and helped me with everything. My classmates were also very nice.
My favourite place in Cape Town is Lion’s Head where I can walk from the school. I’ve been there several times for the sunrise and sunset, which have, incidentally, been some of the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets in my life.
It was an amazing trip in LAL School. Course and lessons 10/10. Teacher Casey was a very good teacher. Accommodation – Thank you for cleaning all day!
I couldn’t be more glad to have been studying here in LAL London for the past 3 months. Firstly, because London is my favourite place in the world, and because LAL is my favourite English school – and that’s why it’s my third time here! The lessons are amazing. I’ve learned so much with my teacher James and all my classmates. And more than grammar, I can understand more about people and cultures. Each class is an adventure that takes us to different subjects, cultures, worlds. In each class we share a little bit of us, and that’s what makes this experience so fantastic.
Studying in this charming town of Twickenham, I have learnt to be more confident as an English student and as a person.This is the most important experience of my life. Thank you, LAL, for being part of it!
I’m very happy with the IELS English school in Malta. The small group lessons as well as the 1-to-1 training are well adapted to my level of English. The teachers are well-prepared for any speaking or writing problems which come up in class.
