I have been studying “Business English” in WSE for 5 weeks. I chose that course because I really wanted to find a new job in an international company, and I needed to enhance my speaking in order to pass a job interview in English. Actually, after that period, I am quite sure that I can face that challenge. In addition, this course taught me how to manage sticky situations in a business environment, such as presentations, negotiations, etc … and all of that in English!
I do recommend coming to improve your English at WSE, not only for the quality of its teachers and facilities but also for its social programme through which you can meet people from all over the world and continue to make progress in your speaking and have fun at the same time.
On the other hand, WSE is located in one of the best London’s neighbourhoods. Actually, you can have everything you need just around the corner.
A great experience in every respect.

My name is Abdulrhman Eshehri and I’m from Saudi Arabia. I would love to share my story. I came to London to learn English. One of my friends advised me to study at Wimbledon School of English. I started studying at WSE in mid-2019. My English was not good so I started learning from the beginner level but moved to the next level quickly. I studied hard until I reached the advanced level within seven months.
Then I started concentrating and preparing for the IELTS test and I wanted to get a high score in the test so that I could study for a master's degree at one of the most prestigious universities in the UK.
After a great effort, I managed to get a high score in the IELTS test, which was 7 overall, and therefore I was able to obtain an unconditional offer from Queen Mary University of London, which is one of the most prestigious universities in the United Kingdom and one of the Russell Group.
Studying at the university was never easy, but by studying hard, attending lectures, discussing with professors and students, and reading a lot of scientific research, I gained a lot of experience and knowledge, and then I was able to achieve the dream that I came to the United Kingdom for, which is to get a master’s degree and I actually got it from Queen Mary University of London.
I loved sharing my story of how I started and how I achieved my dream.
I am very proud of what I have accomplished and also proud that I was one of the students of Wimbledon School of English, where I benefited greatly.

I highly recommend my four-month study at Wimbledon School of English and the social activities that accompanied it.
The experience at Wimbledon School of English was truly exceptional. The teachers were highly skilled and dedicated, creating a supportive and engaging learning environment. Their expertise allowed me to improve my English language skills significantly in just a month. The classes were well-structured, with a perfect balance of theory and practical exercises.
Furthermore, the school's commitment to personalised attention was evident. The class sizes were small, which allowed for more individualised instruction and ample opportunities for participation and interaction with fellow students. This made learning enjoyable and effective.
The social activities organised by the school were equally enjoyable. From weekly outings to famous London landmarks to engaging cultural workshops, there was always something fun and educational to do. These activities not only helped me explore the amazing city of London but also provided opportunities to practice my newly acquired language skills in real-life situations.
The school's staff were friendly, approachable, and went above and beyond.

After a great initial experience of two months at WSE, I decided to extend the adventure for six months.
Indeed, I was pleased with the school’s size which provided a friendly atmosphere. Not only the quality of education was excellent, but also the encounters with people from all over the world were enriching. Also, one of the highlights was the backyard garden.
As an architect, I’m quite sensitive to indoor but also outdoor spaces. The garden was a great place to relax and chat with friends during breaks, fostering the overall experience of the course.
Last but not least, I was seeking professional opportunities in a capital as multicultural and dynamic as London.

Is my pleasure to write about the time I stayed you. I passed the best period of my life in WSE. I will take with me all the good memories I made during the time I studied with you in London.
I had an opportunity to meet new people, made good friends, people who I wanna stay in touch for the rest of my life.
Studying with you in WSE was a very good experience, I had the best teachers, and I could learn a lot about English and your different aspects. However, I will continue to study English all my life. Today I can talk with people, I can write in English, I can understand what people say. But I know I need to improve more and more my English. Maybe in the future with tools I obtained in WSE I can teach children in my country.
With all my experience, I’m sure my professional life will change. New doors will open.
To all my teachers, in special Julian Oakley, Rob Julian, Helen Smith, Vittorio, Sean, Sofia and Ollie, thanks for everything. You went very important in my experience with the language. Today, I’m feeling more confident with my English.
Certainly, I will continue to talk with you, and I wish all the best for WSE and all professionals.

Zoe took Live Online English classes with us and was so kind as to share her experience with us.
‘When I first heard about having online classes I was quite sceptical about it. However, I gave it a go and now I’m very happy. Clearly, it isn’t the same as normal classes, but at the moment there isn’t a better solution to the actual situation. Before the school had to close temporarily, we did a meeting on Zoom between the classes in different classrooms and our teachers showed us how it works. Don’t worry, you'll be absolutely fine - it’s very easy. Zoom is an online platform, similar to Skype, which gives us a lot of opportunities to create virtual classes. From improving our speaking skills to practise our listening or watching videos together there’s almost nothing you can’t do. It’s fascinating how authentic online-classes are to real ones. What’s more, our teachers are as motivated as they were in school and they try hard to give their best effort. It is a new experience for all of us, but we learn together and that’s great fun! I’m very grateful to have these modern techniques nowadays, which help us, even more, to keep in touch with each other in times like these.’
