London is just ‘WOW! Quite simply, one of the greatest cities in the world, offering an urban adventure that you will not find anywhere else. London is the planet’s global city, where 9 million people from every country come together to speak English! If you want to learn the English language and get to know the whole world at the same time, this is the place for you!
London is the city of everything! There are the “must sees”: Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament and the London Eye, as well as world class museums, galleries, sports centres, an infinity of restaurants, theatres, cafes, bars, the iconic river Thames, and the greenery of the parks throughout the city . London never sleeps: there are things going on everywhere and all the time – you will need more than a couple of weeks to discover it all, but you can get a taste of what London has to offer with our London Experience course!

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.
The DELTA helped me to develop as a teacher, gain deeper knowledge and insight, and has broadened my horizons. The course was tough but well-organised and well worth it as it has given me much more of a profound understanding of what it means to be a teacher.
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.
The English course is really good and I have the feeling that I am learning a lot here. The teachers are very lovely and give a lot of attention to the students so that I almost feel like I am in private lessons. I like Hunters Lodge because it’s a great opportunity to really get to know new friends from other cultures and to practise English outside the school.
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.
I learnt how to express myself, how to listen, how to write and to believe in myself. I sincerely think that LAL is a good school, and all of the teachers are so kind, good listeners and understanding. The teachers get along with all of the students.
I had great, experienced teachers and interesting lessons which made studying easy and led to great results. Now I feel confident in the modern world and have good career opportunities.
