Language school Brighton, BSC

WiFi is free.

School

The school occupies a large, beautiful 4-storey Victorian building located in Hove, on a small quiet tree-lined street which opens out onto Kings Way, the large street beside the sea. This ideal location allows students to take advantage of all of the attractions of the city centre and of the beach which are both around fifteen minutes away. BSC Brighton offers its students modern equipment and excellent conditions for learning English, including 15 spacious and bright classrooms, an independent study room, a library, a computer room, a WiFi connection, a cafeteria, a garden and a terrace. Finally, the school distinguishes itself by having a Job Club, where students can get information concerning student jobs. In this way, the school becomes a favourable platform for those who wish to find part-time work during their studies. This service is free and gives appointments to interested students once every two weeks in order that they may find out information on potential employers (bars, hotels, promotional work, shops. etc.). Participants are given information regarding the laws and methods in force and benefit from a complementary personalised service on how to correct/adapt CVs.

Accommodation

Host family
Staying with a host family is an enriching experience from both a social and linguistic point of view. The families are often located in the residential districts of the town, around 30 minutes away from the school by bus. Students stay in a single room with half board provided daily.

Student house (from 18 years)
Staying in an single bedroom, this option will suit more independent students. Meals are at your own expense, but the kitchen is at your disposal. The living room and bathroom are also shared with the other flatmates. The student houses are situated between 10 and 20 minutes' walking distance away from the school.

Leisure

The school offers a complete social program that will allow you to make connections with the other students easily. Outings and excursions are organised for both during the week and on the weekend. The town’s numerous sports complexes will help you stay in shape, as will the wide quays that run alongside the ocean and are perfect for jogging or roller skating, unless you prefer water sports. More leisurely types will enjoy the Lanes, small alleys that are great for shopping because you can find everything there.

Testimonial

Alice Krahenbuhl Brighton is a beautiful city, next to the sea and the students are often happy to go out to the nightclubs, cinema, pubs, restaurants or fast food restaurants. One of the first things you should try is swimming in the sea! The school is good because there are different types of accommodation. If you are not sure, you can contact ESL and choose between a student house and a host family. It depends on you, whether you are really independent and like living with a lot of people of different nationalities. There are a lot of different nationalities in the school and you can speak with them only in English.
