Students can stay on-site at our St Mary’s University student residence. The residence features single rooms, with both shared and en-suite bathroom options available.
Staying in a host’s home is a great way to discover the local way of life. At St Mary’s, hosts provide two evening meals per week, while the rest of the week, students will eat lunch and dinner at the school.
I find it very useful for my career as a lawyer dealing with company law and business contracts. I enrich my vocabulary and get an additional set of information focussed on business issues such as negotiating, dealing with communication breakdowns, structuring e-mails etc. The teachers adapt to the students’ interests.
I want to improve my English that’s why I’ve been staying for one month at LAL. It was a good experience because I met people from different countries, new friends and I can practice English everyday.
Capetown is a lovely place, I really enjoy it. The teachers in LAL teach well and they are so cool. The staff in the school is also sociable. Concerning my accommodation, I like it, my room is clean and has enough space even I shared it.
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!
It could be in Portuguese, but I preferred to challenge myself and write my testimonial in English. I had Intensive English and it was four lovely weeks in LAL School. It was really good for me to interact with teachers and other schoolmates. My host mother, Bev and her mom were the best people that I met in Cape Town. I really felt at home. I will miss our conversation. Bev was a really mother for me . I have to say thanks for that.
I enjoyed my stay, I learned many cultures, to talk to many students from different nations, besides just studying English. It’s a good experience.
I was so happy to stay and study at IELS Gozo. All the staff and teachers are very kind and friendly and I had a great time learning and also going out and enjoying the beauty of Gozo with my new friends. My flat above the school had a balcony with a wonderful view. After lessons I went on lots of activities like Segway tours and boat trips.
