"It not only was a really good time but I also learned lots of new grammar and vocabulary."

Malik Asker, student from Austria

I liked the classes a lot. I am gonna write a lot about the classes cause I visited
two of them. Both teachers I had were really good. They were both really kind
and funny. I could understand everything they said. The location was easy
to find. For me it was just a two minutes walk. Now about the activities.
I went to the afternoon programme and there were lots of different activities.
One day we visited a ship, the other day we played football. I had a lot of fun.
The facilities were excellent. They were really comfortable.

There was nothing, that I did not like!!!!!

"Despite my short stay a complete experience"

Alize Garcia Llona, student from Spain

I stayed for only a week in a welcoming house where they showed me their kindness and helped me whenever they could. The house was really well located and I had no difficulty in moving around the city. In addition, Donna (my host mum) gave me the opportunity to practice my english and even to get to know the British culture and gastronomy, I felt very welcome.

Clases were really dynamic and the teacher made them as entertaining as possible while at the same time we made a good use of the time for learning and adquiring new vocabulary. In my class most of the students where italian, this fact forced me to practice my english. However, I would have preferred to be with a wider variety of nationalities.

Finally, the activities from the social programme were really nice and enriching and the group was varied. I was thankful for being able to skip one of the activities in order to do one with my classmates instead.

"Successful experience"

Alexander Marek Bera, student from Czech Republic

I wasn't staying in London so for me it was a little challenge.
In the school I've met some of the best people in my life. Every morning I was looking forward to see the entire class.

visa

Visa support

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. However, the school can supply you with all the documentation you need to support your visa application.

If you are studying in the UK for over 11 months, you will receive a reference number called a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) that you need to submit to the UK embassy along with your General Student Visa application. Students who have successfully booked a language course and have paid their fees will receive a CAS from WLES. Please note that UK law states that a CAS can only be issued to students who intend to pursue English language studies for over 11 months.

If you are studying in the UK for 11 months or less, you have to apply for a special visitor visa called a Student Visitor Visa. As a student visitor, you will not be able to work part-time while studying. If you plan to study in the UK for 11 months or less, a letter of acceptance will be sent to your home address by regular mail at no charge to you.
