Despite on the time i spend it in the academy which was a short period

On other hand the price of the course was costly to me and at the same time there are alot of online course with minimal price which is affordable to me .

Thanks with

"Great"

Derbis Campuzano, student from UK

I am so grateful for the time I enjoyed in the academy, to be hones I learned a lot, and I feel more comfortable and confident with my English.

Unfortunately I enjoyed during the time when school moved to another building, and we loose some teachers, that affect a lot to me, the new building rooms sometimes are too small, and I don't like the chair's but in the future that things can be improved.

I can say with honesty they have a great humans group, always ready to support and help.

"PAE is more than school"

Abdullah

Preston Academy of English is my favourite English school as I used to study with punch of English schools worldwide. teachers are professional, courses are suitable for every level, city is quite and in the central of the U.K which means nothing is far away from you and the management members of the school are hopeful and kind people. every week they have activities for students to practice their language outside.

if you want to join this school, do not miss the afternoon classes (IELTS, speaking, writing ...etc) there are useful classes shouldn't be missed.

This school will take you hand by hand from the beginning to the professionalism. It was a nice time in Preston Academy of English, furthermore, the school's price is affordable and the city is one of the cheapest cities it the U.K.

"An English Learning Academy for young people and seniors with a disciplined human environment of integration and cosmopolitanism."

Ramiro García

The experience at Preston Academy of English has been very pleasant for me. It is very well located, practically in the center. It is not very big, but it has everything you need (Small classrooms with small groups to interact, Services, Meeting Room where you can spend time together, have a coffee, a soft drink or a bottle of water..., a small Laboratory where they do tests. ..

You meet young and old colleagues (from good middle class families), who come from Egypt, Turkey, Arabia, Pakistan, Italy, France, Romania, Spain... with whom you make easy a little friendship. You know that there are diverse beliefs and you respect them, but tolerance and humanity overlap.

The Teachers are native and know a lot, they welcome you right away so that you learn a lot or to maintain your English.
Many settle in family homes, or rent a small apartment. I was in the Residence of Trinity College, which is very close and where it is very good. I was in a house where there is a small kitchen with a refrigerator and basic tools. There you can make your breakfast, a sandwich or a salad, if you want to eat there. You also have a communal iron. And then there are three or four single rooms with your bed, your wardrobe, your table-wifi and your bathroom with a shower (the basics). There is a Laundry where you can wash-dry your clothes with a few coins. Everything clean, and the doormen are discreet, friendly and attentive. From the Academy there is someone who cares about where you are, if you are safe and do not have any health problems. They are discreet and give you security. I was in the house with a Greek woman teacher, who came with a small group to Preston University, a young Arab from Riyadh and a young Japanese. Each to his own, but with very good coexistence
Some simple activities are carried out at the Academy...some visit-outing to a church, to a cafeteria-pastry shop...You get along very well with your classmates and with the teachers.

I know the grammar, more or less the vocabulary and the writing, but in oral communication I am somewhat worse. Perhaps the personal academy lacks a bit of knowledge of the students' native languages... to be precise in some communication, but obviously English must be the language of exchange (in fact speaking in one's own languages ​​can become a lack of education, and that is understandable).

All in all, a very positive experience. English and Arab people have created an Intelligent Integration Academy for Europe, which is what society has to do in the 21st century

"I could improve my english very well!"

Isabel Schreiber, student from Germany

I was only 2 weeks (15 hours a week) at the Preston Academy of English, but could improve my English like one year in school( my feeling) ! It's near the city centre so you can find it easy. The location is small but have all you need, sometimes it was a little bit cold but we were in a small room and it's getting warm fast. I like the small room because there are only three people, another student , the teacher and me. They are both so friendly, especially the teacher Maria was so sweet and lovely. It was nice to talk to them and feeling comfortable, not like the feeling in school. Because we were such a little group the teacher could focus and our problems, the class never get boring and we do a lot of interesting things. The possibility to go on trips on Fridays and Saturdays are a very good thing but cause I was only there to visit my boyfriend I was more interested to stay with him , but it's such a good way to communicate and make friends in a new country so if I would be there for another reason I would going to take place. Moreover the help of the assistant Require (sorry if I don't write it correct) was so lovely , she helps me in every situation and with problems I have in another country. I be so thankful to the whole team. See you, Isabel Schreiber from Berlin (Germany)

"I spent a whale of time with my son at this Academy."

Lukács Anikó

I spent a whale of time with the best teachers and staff in the academy!
Firstly, all of staff members were the most helpfully persons in my English language studies experience.
Secondly, there are a numerous highly qualified teachers. For instance, some of them have PHD degree about English language.
What is more, the accommodation was clean and comfortable, near the city center and the academy.
All in all, I recommend this Academy for all students who would like to speak English well.

"Fantastic"

Márcia Ariela Costa De Almeida

My trip was amazing! I've never had such an amazing experience in my life. I'm so grateful to have met many people around the world and getting know other cultures. I really enjoyed having so many different teachers, each one with a different and funny way to teach, to make you feel interested, and they are all such a lovely people. I think I had improved my language skills, in fact I want to learn more languages. Now I can have a normal conversation with someone without thinking too much I feel more confident. Moreover, I have an amazing director as well he is a such a good person, always encouraged me to do my best, and trying to make me smile each day and I'm so thankful for that! In the future I want to be surrounded with people like him( Abdullah Nakhuda).

visa

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 PAE. 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.
