They have spaces on their English courses in July and August.


  • Live with a qualified English teacher and other students, in an English-speaking house.
  • 17.5 hours of morning English lessons per week, in small classes - maximum class size of 4, normally 2 or 3.
  • Work for Charities, NGOs and other organisations in the afternoons.
  • Or join us on Trips, activities and extra courses with qualified English teachers.
  • Free accommodation in your own room in Leeds, UK.
  • Social activities such as film-nights, cultural evenings, and trips to the pub.
