"My experience in Burlington"

Ibai Azpirotz, student from Spain

I have had a very good experience in Burlington. Since the first day, the teachers and all the staff of the school treat me very well. The classes were appropiated and the rooms were comfortable and clean. I didn't like a lot the food because it was too spicy but the chefs were very kind.
So, I had a good time.

"Nice teachers but bad accommodation"

Konrad Schindler, student from Austria

The teachers were nice but sadly the level even in the best course was too low and unchallenging. The rest was fine but the food
wasn't great. And I was confused because the rooms didn't have closets.

"Trip to London turned out to be fantastic due to Burlington school."

Islam Suleiman, student from Kazakhstan

I really loved my stay and my classes in Burlington school. I believe it was great experience and I have no ounce of regret that I was there. Teachers in the school are really professionals, for instance Chris,Jason,Mark,Tom. Chefs of the coffee bar are also nice, I admire them. Food in the coffee bar was really tasty and there were wide choice of food. However, there was too much pork meat than other type of meat, not quite good for muslims) but it is still ok. I would love to tell one of the most good thing, it is location. School is located at the wildly convenient place, nearby station-balham and 3 zone

"It was a really good experience"

Vanila Ramanambohitra, student from Switzerland

The classes were interesting and the teacher is kind. The location is good because we have some market nearby like sainsburry and mcdonalds so I was able to buy other things for me. I was there only for 3 weeks but i improve my english a little bit. For example, for the speaking i answer and talk faster than before and i more comfortable to speak in english and i was not afraid to do some mistakes. I attend three of the social program and they were interesting experience. I liked it. The housing was not bad but i would have liked it if we had a closet to put my clothes in the room. I was a bit surprise because i expected the room to be bigger. Breakfast were always the same so i had some difficulties with that. Other than that the staff were very good,nice and helpful.

"It was the greatest experience of my life!"

Felipe Andrade, student from Brazil

The room was very nice...I Think they gave me a free upgrade :-). The classes were perfect and so were the teachers. I engage with plenty of Friends and despite 6 hours a day in class I was immersed15 hours a day in English (Partying, Studying, etc). In the end, in the last day I did the IELTS exam for the first time in my life and got a fair 5.5. I believe that studying a bit more and doing some exam prep I would do the 7.0 that I will need in 4 Years for my masters. I only did the exam to evaluate my English level in each spectrum.

"A pleasant discovery."

Amélie Boireau, student from France

The Burlington School of English is a very good language school in London. It welcomes students from all over the world with all different levels of English.

- The entire school staff is top notch: kind, welcoming, understandable, helpful.
- The lessons were great and adapted according to your level of English. For my part, I had an incredible teacher. She was funny, she made her classes dynamic and interesting, it made you want to learn.
- The school is conveniently located about 30 minutes from London city center by tube.

The accommodation was very good and practical being in the school.
- My room was clean and decent but a little small for 2 people (not being in my room all the time, that was not a problem for me).

The facilities within the residence are pleasant: there are common areas such as large lounges, a sports corner and insulated rooms for studying.
- The common toilets and showers are adequate and clean. Only small negative point the practicality of the showers concerning privacy: the showers are arranged in the outbuildings for only separation a white shower curtain. To dry off, undress and get dressed we have very little space in the shower, we have to go and isolate ourselves in the toilets to get dressed or undressed.

The school offers various free or paid activities. I only made one which was free. She was very good, it allowed me to meet people.

This first experience was extraordinary. This stay was a real discovery in every way, whether in terms of meetings, the city, school, learning English, etc.

"Try to learn English"

Igor Świder, student from Poland

Lessons with mark were super good. I have learned a lot of thing in English language. I really like the posture of teachers. Everybody tries to make lessons interesting and fun. Location is for me very good, because of the underground. Activities were
very creative. I really liked big ben and tower bridge. Rooms were good and beds weren't as bad as i thought.

"Burlington School, an excellent language school in the heart of Balham"

Tom SCHLICHTING, student from Afghanistan

The classes were perfectly divided and the teachers were all friendly and improved my English significantly.
The neighborhood around the school is a bit far from the center of the city, but it is a nice place to live.

The school building itself is a church, but the inside has been converted into a school with classrooms, a dining hall and bedrooms. There is also a room called "Common Room" which was the hotspot to hangout
for students after classes.
All in all everything was very clean and a very nice place to stay.

The bedrooms were a bit small but at the same time big enough to live in.

I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend for students of all levels!

"An amazing experience"

Johanna Ruggenthaler, student from Austria

I had a great experience in Burlington School of English, the facilities were very modern and the teachers really nice. Housing situation was mostly good except for the fact that the heater broke and it took two weeks to fix it. The social activities are lots of fun as well. Overall I had an amazing time and I would definitely recommend attending this school.

"Very disappointed"

Sheila Senger, student from Brazil

Unfortunately, my experience in The Burlington School of English was very disappointed, the classes don’t have connections, are isolated and don’t prepare for the IELTS test. The classes are very childish not what I expect being an adult. The teachers loose too much time look for materials during the classes, they are not preparing for the classes in advance. I just lost money, was a waist of time.

"The perfect language school"

Éva Balláne Hudák, student from Hungary

I have very good experinces. Burlington School is a very professional, well-arranged language school.

As for the teachers, they are kind, provide exciting topics and want to develop the knowledge of the students the more efficient way. I attended to C1 class and it could improve my speaking. It was the main aim why I went to the language school.
On the first day we wrote a grammar test, an essay and we had to speak with teacher so they assessed the Enlglish knowledge and put us into groups in a matrix system depending which skills are required to improve. Thanks to this I meet lot of students.

My classmates were also kind and good team, everybody wanted to improve so took part in excercises actively. And in addition we could talk to each other in the breaks and practise the speaking with them.

Location was also good because it is only a 10 minutes walk from Balham underground station which can be reached easily by Northern metro line from the city center. Balham station is 15-20 minutes from London Bridge metro station.

Facilities are also excellent because there is a canteen with delicious food at good price and there is a dining room which funcionated as a community/meeting room where the students can sit in the breaks and meet each other. Here the life was always busy because students were looking for each other's company.

I booked my accomodation on my own so it is not connected to the Burlington Language School.

"It was great."

Eladys Arteaga Email : [email protected], student from Chile

The classes were are very interesting ,clear and easy for me.
My teachers were are very dynamic and helpful.They dedicated personally to each student.
The building was good,and later was nearer my host house so it was excellent for me.
The facilities in the first building were not so good,the tables ,chairs and bathroom were very old.
I was so happy to go out with my classmates and teachers to visit some places because, I could communicate with them.
At the beginning ours hostess was very nice,but we had a serius problem with her, because one day we arrived late for dinner because of the train.We called her to prevent her but, she called off.
We had to put with this situation because The Burlington School moved very near our Host House.

I liked the classes , my teachers,my classmates and the town.
I didn¨´t like the material , I think it was poor and insufficient.

I had a great experience. The teachers explained everything in a way that was easy for me to understand. I really admire the way that they make you interact with the other students to increase your English and learn all together, and in a funny way . In a future time i will love to come back, and I will talk good of you with my fiends to come and get their own experience

"Good school, organization and personal."

Federico Patrono, student from Italy

I spent 3 weeks in this school, i had good time in the classroom and in the school's accommodation, but there was somethings wrong such us the cleaning in the accommodation in my opinion was insufficient, and the structure of the school is too old, and nowadays needs a renew, but in all is a great place because the teacher and the other personal were kind and available to everything i needed.
i will advice this school to my friend certainly.

"Most unforgettable and useful experience in study."

Anuar Iskakov, student from Kazakhstan

Burlington school is suitable place for studying for everyone. The main reasons to study in Burlington is conversation, friendliness and understandable explaining. Every teacher so kind, polite and artist. One thing which I don’t like in my school is old and uncomfortable building. But I heard that Burlington will have a new cool building for studying.

"It was a total immersion, my english improved much more"

Emmanuel EMERENTIENNE, student from France

On my first day I was greeted by the governor of the residence, one can scare at first because I had a hard time understanding the language especially when there are accents that add up, but in the end he reassured me and explain how life in Burlington student residency works.

And to finish the courses I had with my teacher James was super useful and concrete because what I learned in class help me better to talk to other people outside of class (other students, a passer-by in the street) ..) Thanks to you for it's 2 weeks.

Ps: The bunk bed I had was not comfortable but the chef's dishes were really excellent.

"Very effective"

Diana Boldyreva, student from Russia

I liked everything. The teachers were very professional, rather strict. It was not allowed to use the phone during the lessons, to be late and chat. They gave homework and were often tested. Every Friday gave feedback.
The school is located near the metro station Parson green (7 minutes walk) and the bus stop Radipole Road (3 minutes walk). Also close is the budget supermarket Tesco.
Wifi works at the school, there is a library where you can rent a book. And there is a rest zone for students, in which there are computers.
On Fridays we went to the nearest pub with the whole group, including the teacher. It was fun and informative to communicate in an informal atmosphere.
I do not recommend staying in a school residence, because the rooms were not cleaned, 4-6 people can live at the same time. Only 3 rooms: 1 for boys and 2 for girls. The bathrooms are separate, but there are more girls, so there are queues in the mornings and evenings. And of course, there are so many young students that the residence can be quite noisy.
Meals are available in the school canteen. Not very tasty, but edible.
In general, I am satisfied with the educational process at school and not particularly with living.

Visa support

We cannot apply for visas on behalf of students. However, the school can supply you with all the documentation you need to support your visa application.

If you are studying in the UK for over 11 months, you will receive a reference number called a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) that you need to submit to the UK embassy along with your General Student Visa application. Students who have successfully booked a language course and have paid their fees will receive a CAS from . Please note that UK law states that a CAS can only be issued to students who intend to pursue English language studies for over 11 months.

If you are studying in the UK for 11 months or less, you have to apply for a special visitor visa called a Student Visitor Visa. As a student visitor, you will not be able to work part-time while studying. If you plan to study in the UK for 11 months or less, a letter of acceptance will be sent to your home address by regular mail at no charge to you.
