English in Edinburgh
Scotland’s capital city is a hub of tourist and cultural activity. Known as “the Athens of the North”, Edinburgh is a city of art and intellectual pursuits. With a lower cost of living than London, Edinburgh is a wonderful destination to study English for the first time or to brush up on your existing skills. As a world-class city full of festivals, history and scenic beauty, Edinburgh will provide a host of engaging opportunities to meet new people with whom you can practise your English. Check out the Edinburgh Film Festival, have lunch at the Elephant House where J.K. Rowling wrote parts of her iconic “Harry Potter” series, or explore the winding, cobblestone streets of this picturesque hilly capital as you study English in Edinburgh. Contact us today and let’s make it happen!
Why Study English in Edinburgh
For Culture: The beauty of Edinburgh Castle and the adjacent Prince Street Gardens await you as a perfect location to enjoy tea or a picnic in spring or summer with friends! Plus, you can do some luxury shopping (or just window shopping) at Jenner’s, the “Harrods of the North” and the city’s most famous department store, which has occupied the same location since it first opened back in 1838. Learn some English with us to make these experiences as enjoyable and relaxed as possible! Or take in the beauty of impressionist and Renaissance masterpieces at the National Gallery of Art on The Mound, a museum that is free to visitors. There is also the National Museum of Scotland on Chambers Street, with treasures on display from around the world. Most of the tours of these museums are in English, so make sure you study in advance to make the most out of these cultural experiences.
For Work: Edinburgh is a thriving city with no shortage of job opportunities, from tech start-ups to major companies. The city is second only to London for average gross annual earnings per resident and is the second-largest financial centre in the United Kingdom, after the City of London, and the fourth in Europe by equity assets, according to a report published by Edinburgh’s Financial Services Sector in 2016. If you are looking for a new job then, there are hundreds of big companies to whom you can apply, such as Lloyds Banking Group, Tesco, Skyscanner and the Royal Mail, and all of them ask that their prospective employees have a good command of the English language. Sign up for a language course with us and broaden your professional horizons today!
For Social: If you truly want to feel like a local in this city, socialising and making new friends is essential, and there is no better chance for doing so than by joining the Edinburgh International English Meetup. This group provides members with a fun place to meet new people and speak English, completely free of charge. Practise your English outside of the classroom while socialising in a relaxed environment! All language levels are welcome, so don’t be shy and join them even if you are just starting your lessons.
