“Since my grandfather founded the school in 1966, we’ve helped thousands of students from around the world make real progress with their English.
Today I run the school with Kathryn, our Principal, and an expert team of staff and teachers. Together, we have years of experience in helping students get the most from their courses.
We take great pleasure in seeing our students enjoy their time with us here in Bournemouth – and watching their English skills improve.
I look forward to welcoming you very soon!”
Paul Gallina,
Managing Director
We are a private language school teaching English as a Foreign Language. We are owned by the family that started the school in 1966, which means that we understand what students need for a successful stay in the UK. We know how important it is for students to be happy during their language stay so our aim is to make sure their course and experience meet their expectations. Our Academic, Administration and Activity teams aim to deal with any questions quickly. We are ready to help before arrival and during their stay so that everyone can Study, Socialise, and Experience the UK.
Here at Southbourne School of English, Bournemouth, we do everything we can to help our students make the most of their time here at our English language school.
We believe students do better in a friendly, safe, learning environment. As well as expert tuition, we encourage a sociable atmosphere, and organise activities that give students a taste of English language and culture.
Learning outside the classroom
Living with a local host gives our students an insight into British culture. We also run an exciting social programme of activities and trips to famous sights.
While they are with us, our students make friends from all over the world. The nearby beach, one of the finest in Europe, is a popular place to get together and have fun. Or take a trip into Bournemouth, an entertainment centre for the south coast of England.
Whatever your language level, we can help. Whatever your reason for studying – career, travel, interest or pleasure – Southbourne School of English is the place for you.
Accreditations
To ensure our students are provided with the best educational experience at Southbourne School of English, we are measured and accredited by some of the top language authorities in the country. These include British Council, English UK, Quality English, and IALC.
