BEET Language Centre

Founded in 1979, BEET Language Centre has many years of experience in teaching English to foreigners. The school places primary importance on the quality of lessons and the continuous training of its teachers so that they are up to date with the latest teaching methods and techniques. This high standard matches the rest of the facilities at the school, making it an ideal setting for studying in an intensive yet entertaining manner. The school has a multimedia resource centre where students can benefit from the different pedagogical aids free of charge, an excellent complement to what is taught in class. Internet, email, language labs, a library and canteen (with tasty and inexpensive midday meals) are some of the many other benefits offered at BEET Language Centre, without doubt one of the best schools in England.

Accomodation

Host family
The school being located in a residential zone, most of the host families are only a few minutes away on foot. In summer, some families are a little farther out, but always on a direct bus route about 15 minutes from the school. Host families are carefully selected and are without doubt the best option for continuing to practise the language outside of the classroom. You will have your own room and breakfast and dinner provided daily.
Student houses
The school possesses family homes that have been transformed and equipped to accommodate students preferring total independence. You will have your own room (or a double room on request), and share the house with a maximum of 6 other students. A kitchen and lounge room with TV and VCR are at your disposal, as well as a bathroom and a washing machine. Some houses have their own garden with a BBQ, and all are located less than 15 minutes form the school by bus.

Leisure

Very active in encouraging integration, the school offers a complete leisure program that allows students to meet and practise English in a relaxed and easy manner. The school proposes themed evenings (lectures, videos, international cooking evenings, quizzes, theatre…) as well as sports (water sports, climbing, group sports…), not to forget the very popular “sing-song” nights that allow students to learn English songs from a traditional and modern repertoire, with an added section for international music from students’ countries of origin.
