School of English is located in Worthing; one of the sunniest
seaside towns located on an award winning coastline on the south
of England. The school is situated right in the town centre

our beautiful seafront. Worthing is located only 17 minutes

"Since 2001 I
have seen the school grow and prosper and change into an
exciting place where clients love returning to.
I love embarking on new projects and follow new directions of
the school and enjoy meeting clients. My job is to make
sure that everyone feels at home and enjoys their stay.
We all share our students' worries, their hard work
and are so proud of their achievements. Time spent with
them is time well spent. And it is an excellent opportunity to
make more friends to welcome into our ever growing St.
George's family. " |

| Why Worthing and St. George's |
Compared to London and other towns |
Courses at St. George's are taught by fully qualified English language teachers in small classes. If you want cheap price from another school expect classes of 25 students or more and even possibly teaching by trainee teachers. |
|
We
offer small classes of a maximum of 12 students (during
the summer a maximum of 16). Our courses are tailored to
the needs of individual students at each available level.
|
Accommodation in Worthing is mostly within walking distance whilst in London you will be expected to travel on daily basis, sometimes up to 45 min per journey by underground. This means you will be saving money by choosing Worthing. |
Worthing is a safe town located on the sunniest coast in the U.K. Combine your studies with an enjoyable time spent at the sea. |
|
You can experience
the buzz of London anytime you want. It takes 1 hr and 12
min to travel to London by train. Worthing has very easy
access to other exciting places like Brighton (12 min by
train), Arundel (35 min), Chichester (30 min), Portsmouth
(1 hr) and many other fantastic locations. |
There is a wide range of entertainment facilities and places of interest for all ages in Worthing (i.e. pubs, restaurants, cinemas, theatres...). Entertainment in London is so much more expensive,
and this also reflects the cost of general standard of living in London.. |
Our students socialise downtown after school and spend their evenings going out to many available pubs and coffee bars on the seafront which is buzzing with life in the evenings. We also offer many social activities organised by the school (i.e. barbecues, parties, karaoke evenings, etc.) which all our students and their guests are welcome to join. |

the beautiful South Downs and more than 5 miles of coastline
which is the sunniest in the country. The promenade
with its marvellous Pier is a magnet to visitors who enjoy
the beach for swimming, sunbathing, fishing and windsurfing.
Visitors
have been enjoying the facilities of Worthing since members of
the Royal Family came here in the 18th century. King Edward V11
spent the summers between 1907 and 1910 at Beach House while Oscar
Wilde found Worthing such a 'charming town' that he spent the
summer and autumn of 1895 in the town while he wrote his
famous play 'The Importance of Being Earnest'. In
the modern era visitors of all types; holiday- makers as
well as students find Worthing a thriving centre with
much to enjoy.

in pedestrianised streets where you can also take a break in one
of the many pavement coffee shops.

theatres and cinemas as well as a mix of dance clubs, bars and
cafes. There are numerous restaurants offering a wide range of

etc. as well as more traditional English food. Visitors can also

stroll in one of the beautiful parks and gardens or have a
game of tennis or ten- pin bowling or perhaps keep fit at
the Sports Centre.
