The Language House likes
Eastbourne is perfect for younger students who are not so confident about travelling to far–off countries to study English. We have placed many 15, 16 and 17 year-old students (and much older) in St Giles Eastbourne. It’s a great option for students who are having difficulties in their school at home and need a change of air. Most students walk or bike to school.
