ICE The Best Value English School in London!

tim_pic_2023v2_1.jpegWhy do we think our English school is the best value in London?  We are considering 1. low prices 2. an amazing central London location 3. excellent Google reviews.

1. ICE English School Prices

 Every year, we compare the prices of the British Council-Accredited English schools in London and ensure that we are cheaper per week than 90% of the other schools in over 90% of the English courses. For example, we compare how much it costs to learn English for 4 weeks every afternoon, 12.5 hours per week or how much it costs to learn English Intensively for 2 weeks.  Our English students are often price-sensitive and so we keep prices low as this is what our English school is known for. 

How can we keep prices so low?

We believe that a good English language school primarily needs great teachers.  Like the teachers are ICE, those who are not just experienced and qualified but also those who love the profession and want to stay teaching English for many years.  At ICE, we don't have a helicopter pad, a swimming pool or a vast library.  What do we have?  Well, we think we have the best English teachers in London.  

2.  Amazing Location - Where is our English school?

The Islington Centre for English is in zone 1, central London just opposite Angel underground station in Islington. Our London Borough is famous for many things including:  two Prime Ministers (Boris Johnson and Tony Blair lived here), over 30 theatres, hundreds of night clubs and bars, the historic Chapel market where we eat our lunch most days, the incredible restaurants of Upper Street and a world famous English language school to name but a few. There is no better place in the world to learn English and see the historic sights of London.  We are 15 minutes on the Northern line from Oxford Street, 10 minutes on the tube from the old City of London and a 10-minute walk from from Kings Cross International station!  How good is that??!

3.  4.5* Google English School Reviews

Check out our English Courses London reviews to see what students say!

Other great stuff we could have said...

Did we forget to mention the Weekly London Social Programme in which our students visit the coolest places in town every week to have fun, make friends and practise their English?  

What about the Free Conversation Club for all enrolled students every Wednesday afternoon?

Has anyone suggested that one of the best selling points about our English school is the maximum class size of only 15 students?  Not bad for a course that can cost as little as £90 per week for a 12.5-hour English course per week.  This is our 44-week afternoon course.  

And our super side range of nationalities represented in each English class?  Students from France, Germany, Spain, Japan, Brazil, Turkey...

I think we should have said that our English courses are also really flexible and you can study part-time or full-time or intensively depending on what your week looks like!
