Accommodation

Host family
Numerous inhabitants of Wimbledon work in London and live in the suburb to enjoy a better way of life. It's the ideal opportunity to continue to practise the language with the locals, to further improve your language skills in addition to those you have acquired in class.

Student house (from 20 years)
The school provides its students with the use of a beautiful English house with a garden, located in South West Wimbledon, 10 minutes by bus and 30 minutes' walking distance away from the school. It welcomes 5 students in single rooms and gives the use of a well-equipped kitchen. This option is particularly suited to independent students.
Please note: the check-in takes place on Saturday between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. Arrivals up until 8 p.m. are also possible, but with a price supplement.
Due to the shortage of availability, other accommodation of a student house type are also proposed. Contact us for further information.

Leisure

The school offers a range of extracurricular activities. Students can choose to play football, tennis, squash and other sports, or to take salsa dance lessons to prepare for the nights out organised by the school. Wimbledon is only a quarter of an hour from London by train, allowing students to take advantage of all that the capital offers in the way of shows, concerts and other world-class cultural events. The school also offers numerous social and sporting activities, allowing students to meet and practise the language outside of the classroom. Around the end of June, the Grand Slam tournament gives you the opportunity to experience a great sporting event that gives Wimbledon and international ambiance.
