Our summer English courses are designed to give students the opportunity to practise their English in a friendly, multicultural environment. Students are actively encouraged to practise their English with students from other nationalities, both in class and outside. We concentrate on raising their confidence and fluency, and bringing out the English they already know, but can’t yet use. At St Lawrence we operate a zig-zag programme where students can have activities in the morning and classes in the afternoon which then change the next week.
We have so much more, activities, excursion etc. If you want to explore more get more details here it.
Location
St. Lawrence College is situated in Ramsgate, a historic seaside town on the southeast corner of England. Ramsgate has a picturesque harbour, some lovely Regency architecture and a sandy beach – perfect for enjoying the long summer days!
St Lawrence is in the area known as the Isle of Thanet, which includes several Blue Flag beaches and the seaside towns of Margate and Broadstairs. Thanet has been home to several artists and writers: Charles Dickens, the artist J.M.W Turner and Vincent Van Gogh taught French at a school in Ramsgate.
The cathedral town of Canterbury is a short journey away and London is just 70 minutes away.
What's Included
-Five levels from Elementary to Advanced
-All students are tested on arrival to grade their spoken and written English to place them in the class of the correct level
-15 hours of teaching per week from qualified teachers including project work to allow them to use their English creatively and learn more about British culture and history
-A certificate on completion of their course
-Full activity programme including 5 afternoon activities and 7 evening activities
-One half day excursion to local towns and cities
-One full day excursion to more prominent towns and cities further away
-St Lawrence operates a zig-zag programme, meaning classes can take place in the afternoon and activities in the morning. This is alternated throughout the student’s time
