"An unforgettable experience!!!"

Alberto Chan Ruiz, student from Mexico

I would definitely recommend this school to anyone wanting to improve their English while having a great time. I had an awesome experience, with the social program being one of the best part. I met people from different countries, as there were new students each week, and made great friends. The school has excellent teachers, who really helped me in my preparation for my IELTS exam, and I was really pleased with my grade. In additional to that, my host family was lovely- always taking care of me and helping me with my English at dinner.

"An interesting and helpful course programme with enjoyable social activities"

Marie GANDET

I was doing the "Work Experience" programme at EIM School for 9 weeks, which includes the morning in class and the afternoon working with the staff in the school.

The class was well-organised with students from different countries. It's good to have this heterogeneity of cultures and ages. I changed teachers 4 times. I liked it because it showed new teaching methods to learn the language.

When I was working in the office, I carried out various tasks. It improved my English language skills a lot, as I spoke with native English persons and had a normal conversation about work in the office. This kind of work in my internship has brought me a lot of knowledge about attendance, punctuality and regularity. I learnt more about time management and team working.

I was assisting the office manager in the daily running of the office; my duties were “Supporting the Academic Management Team”. My main mission in the school office was to take care of the monitoring of students with special software. I also had to create folders based courses for teachers.

This experience was very rewarding and allowed me to rub shoulders with other students as well as members of the school staff to communicate in English.

I was accommodated in a lovely host family, at 10 minutes’ walk from the school.

Activities were very well prepared by Dave, the social assistant who does his best to keep the students happy and comfortable in the school. The Hawley Club is a great place with lively music for students to meet, chat, have fun and make friends during breaks, at lunchtime and in the afternoons and evenings. Each student can take part in the proposed activities (movies, games, table tennis, football, etc). The group 'English in Margate' offers many activities during free time and gives useful addresses for sports. The outputs bowling, tennis, salsa also allowed me to practice English.

The school also allowed me to visit towns and cities around Margate, especially on Saturdays. You just simply register on a list to participate in the output. With this system, I visited lots of nice towns on the seafront.

I would definitely repeat this internship with pleasure if the opportunity was available.

"A very good place for improving your English!"

Ivona Guekova, student from Germany

English in Margate is a small English language school situated in a cute house in the city of Margate. There are many rooms for different levels. In the self-studying room you can find a lot of resources. You can use it there or borrow it for your homework. The lecturers are very friendly and well-organized. The Hawley Club is a good place to meet other students, to check your mails and to relax. Several activities are offered every day and the time was over too quickly ;-( I'm really glad to have chosen this language school for my English course.

"An unforgettable experience in a beautiful setting."

Benjamin Hubert

I had a very good time in Margate. Although Clinftonville is a bit rundown, the area (and especially the coast) is beautiful, even in October.
I made a lot of good friends at the school and the atmosphere is really enjoyable.
The teachers are very friendly and the lessons are interesting. I made a lot of progress during my stay.
The last point (but not least). I really enjoyed the activities in the school and the Hawley Club! The trips, salsa, and evenings in the Hawley Club are good to practice our English in a relaxed way.

"It's a new experience."

Mouna Qanini

I think that the classroom can be small, I really like Felicitas, I think she's a very good teacher, the other teachers are good. The location is good but I don't like the town, The school is very well located. It's next to my house, to the shops and to the beach. I think there is not really a good facilities, for example the wifi isn't everywhere in the school even in the Hawley Club, there is not wifi next to the bar. Moreover there isn't a printer for students. I think there are good activities, but it's repetitive for someone who stayed a long time like me.
The housing is excellent, my host parents are very nice and the accommodation is very good.

"Great!!!"

Letizia galletti

It was a very good experience, I'm absolutely satisfied. I stayed for three weeks.
I have known a lot of foreign people.
But I don't like the program of the lessons, because I studied many times the future form and I've not never studied the past form.
I think that the study program could be improvement.

"An unforgettable summer thanks to English in Margate!"

Alexandra Beuve

Before starting University to study English, I wanted to find something special for summer and thought I could combine holiday and practice of English.

I found English in Margate and decided to apply to do the Work Experience. Not only this school gives you English lessons but it also offers you lessons in return for your work in the school. For me that was the perfect opportunity. Moreover the fact that the school works with trustworthy host families thanks to the Accommodation Manager was really reassuring.

When I arrived in Margate I was surprised by the warm welcome of my host family and immediately felt at home.
Even more surprising was the atmosphere in the school. Everyone was lovely and willing to help you. You soon feel really comfortable.

When it comes to the lessons, it's brilliant. The teachers are amazing and they really want you to progress. It was a real pleasure to go the lessons thanks to them and also the other students. Indeed it's a small school where you easily make friends with people from all over the world with their own language and their own culture. Everyone comes with a friendly attitude and a great motivation and that's why we improve our English really quickly.

Working in the school was also such a great experience. You learn a lot and the staff is really helpful. I didn't only work because I had to do it, I genuinely enjoyed it and I was really committed. And that's because English in Margate is not only a school where nothing happens apart from the lessons. A lot of activities and trips are organized for the students. They can gather in the Hawley Club in the school, to get to know each other and have good time. During the summer, there are also social assistants who make sure that you enjoy every aspect of your stay in Margate and its surroundings.

That's why I highly recommend this school, English in Margate. I had one of the best experience of my life thanks to the amazing staff, my lovely host family and all the fabulous friends I made their. Leaving was heartbreaking but I'm definitely going back there in the future for another wonderful experience.

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 EiM. 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. If you wish to receive your paperwork by express mail, you will be charged £ 80 when you register.
