The General English Course is designed to give you the confidence to communicate effectively in real-life situations. The course consists of 25 lessons per week and is held from Monday to Friday. The course provides a balanced programme, focusing on the skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing, whilst covering essential grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, idioms and colloquial language. The programme is intended for students with any level of language proficiency - from beginner to advanced.

The school offers a wide range of social activities after classes: boat trip to Beachy Head; mini-golf on Eastbourne seafront; swimming at the Sovereign Centre; cinema; tennis, football and volleyball; ten-pin bowling at Lloyds Lanes. The programme includes 1 half day excursion to Brighton or Hastings and 1 full day excursion to London, Cambridge, Oxford or Bath and Canterbury per week.

Accommodation

Living in homestay accommodation provides you with the perfect opportunity to experience English life and to practise using your English in everyday situations. All the homestays are carefully selected by the Accommodation Department who understand the needs of students from other countries. ELC Eastbourne is conveniently located right in the centre of Eastbourne. You will normally be placed in a homestay within walking distance of school so you will not need to pay for transportation. The programme includes breakfast and evening meal served every day, with lunch on Saturday and Sunday.
