Glasgow School of English

By staying with a Scottish host family, you'll practise English every day and make fast progress. In addition, the daily contact with the people will teach you about the local customs and lifestyle. In pleasant, safe neighbourhoods, at a distance of about 30 minutes (Zone 1) to an hour (Zone 2) by public transport from the school, host families provide single rooms, shared bathrooms and half-board. The school maintains close relationships with host families who are visited on a regular basis in order to ensure the comfort of the international students.

In this student residence, you'll stay in either a single or double room. A private shower and satellite TV as well as free Wi-Fi are all included, and in the shared kitchen, you can prepare your meals in the company of the other international students. Bed linen is provided and laundry facilities for pay are at your disposal. A 20-minute walk is all it takes to get to the school!

Within the beating heart of Glasgow’s student scene is Blackfriars, just 20 minutes’ walk from class. Residents will live in a shared flat and can expect a private room with an ensuite bathroom, desk, wardrobe and WIFI – each flat comes with a TV. Residents will be provided with linen but will need to bring towels – laundry can be done on site for a fee. Residents will be expected to cater for themselves in the shared kitchen and clean their rooms and common areas. Students will be able to socialise in the shared lounge or garden area.
