Language studies in London

England's capital offers a huge choice of accommodation for students on language courses. So much choice that it's hard to know where to turn! 

When you choose to study with us in London, we offer you top-quality accommodation at the best possible price. You'll have three options for accommodation in London:

• Homestay: Staying with a host family during your trip to England is probably the best option for several reasons. The first is being able to speak English every day. You'll interact with the English family on a daily basis, and your English will improve even faster. The second reason is to immerse yourself in a new foreign culture. By staying with a host family, you'll share special moments with them, and English culture will be at your fingertips.
• University residence: This option is excellent for teenagers and young adults. You'll meet foreign students every day on campus. You'll be able to do a variety of sports and/or cultural activities together. What's more, you'll be practicing your English at all times of the day. But be careful not to speak French if you meet people from France. It won't help you learn English!
• Self-catering: The advantage of this last option is that it's more economical, provided you plan ahead and find good accommodation in London. Bear in mind, however, that this option requires more research and information, and you'll need to be careful before renting an apartment in London.
