How We Teach
At International House London, we focus on communication and speaking, with student to student interaction being used rather than a more traditional lecturing approach. This makes our English and Modern Language courses both exciting and rewarding, with progress being made very quickly.
Exploring London
London is a diverse and exciting city with great shopping, restaurants, bars, nightclubs, art galleries, theatres and historic buildings. We’re here to help you see the best of London, with our regular social events that show you the sights and introduce you to other students.
