I would like to do an English course in Britain. Can you send me a list of English language schools?

We do not provide a mail service.

You can use the English in the Britain online database, which comprises English language schools accredited by the British Council:

The website has a search function so you can look for schools, for example, according to type of course and location.

Do you offer English language courses at the British Council in Tirana?

No, we don't offer English language courses in Tirana, Albania.

How much will a course in UK cost on average?

This depends on several factors such as the type, the duration and the location of the course. To give an example: a general course of English comprising 15 hours tuition per week and accommodation plus one full day and one half day excursion per week in the town of Southampton in the south of England costs between £244 - £250 per week. To view this and other examples, please have a look at the English in Britain website.

Can I live with a British family while doing my course?

Many British Council accredited language schools provide homestay accommodation for their pupils. To find out more, have a look at English in Britain website.

Can you recommend any particular English language school?

The British Council has accredited many language schools in the UK and therefore cannot recommend one single school.

'Accredited' means schools are inspected at regular intervals to ensure that they meet our quality standards. Have a look at our Education UK website - you will find a variety of search categories to help you find the language school that suit your needs.
