The Lowdown

An English course in London will teach you about what started as the native tongue of a small group of islands in the North Sea and is now spoken by over 500 million people as a first or second language. The British Empire must take most of the credit, or blame, depending on how you look at it. Those adventurous men of empire brought their strange language to all four corners of the globe; from America to Australia, from Africa to India.

The Crowd

If you're reading this, the chances are you have taken an English course in London already. Or perhaps Google Translate is helping you through... Whether you want to improve your English or you are looking to try something new, English classes are a great investment. The sad truth is that, in England in particular, not many people know a second language so even common languages like French and Spanish won’t be understood by most Londoners. It’s also a great way to make friends for people new to London.

The Cost

English classes are big business in London, and there are a host of English schools out there. With that amount of competition for courses, it;s sometimes possible to even get a few free English lessons. And of course you’ll get great value from your TasterLab taster.

And Finally...

English is a rich language with a host of different accents. Here’s one actresses take on some of them. Have a go yourself before your English course in London.
