Scotland is chosen every year by over 300,000 young people from around the world to study the English language.
Studying in Scotland is particularly enjoyable thanks to a welcoming and friendly population, vibrant cities full of charm, spectacular landscapes easily accessible, excellent cuisine and a wide range of sports, arts, entertainment and social life, all contained within a relatively compact area.
For international students, Scotland represents good value for money in terms of teaching quality and costs, making it accessible to all and catering to different budgets. Moreover, English language courses offer an excellent range of certified institutions at every level, from universities to private language schools.
Students will find an extensive range of courses for both teenagers and adults to welcome secondary and university students, professionals, travellers and tourists. You’ll find schools and departments of every size and reputation, with a wide selection of beginner courses and others specialised in specific age groups, teaching methods or specialist areas of English.
Many students are also drawn by an extremely peaceful lifestyle, with modest-sized cities rich in cultural events, festivals and concerts, practically free from crime, where it’s safe to return home in the evening, furnished with large parks, sports facilities, plenty of gathering places and efficient transport and services.
Moreover, with short journeys it’s possible to explore the landscapes and attractions and natural and historical highlights of the country. This is a fundamental aspect for those who decide to study in Scotland: students can combine their studies with leisure time dedicated to sightseeing.
Edinburgh is the ideal place to take an English course in Scotland: it is a medium-sized city, rich in events, cultural appointments and music festivals, peaceful and safe, a tourist destination for families and young people who gather in the many pubs and bars for a vibrant nightlife. Here you’ll find many English schools offering courses suited to all ages and levels of English proficiency.
