Live Language is a friendly language school that offers student-centred English courses to help you progress. You can make your dreams come true in a place where you feel at home.

We accept students from beginner level upwards and help them through their academic career to university preparation courses and university entrance. Our school is located in Charing Cross, a safe and quiet area of the city. We are close to the University of Glasgow and a 10 minute walk from the West End and the city centre. Glasgow is nicknamed "The Friendly City" and is appreciated for its culture, museums, music, nightlife and shopping, but above all for its people. If you travel 45 minutes east, you reach Edinburgh, if you travel 45 minutes west, you reach the Highlands. It is easy to get around Glasgow on foot, by bus, train or underground.

Live Language welcomes students from all over the world. Our class sizes are small, allowing for maximum contact between teachers and students. Our courses are designed to be communicative and interactive, so that you can use the language with confidence in real-life situations. We do not believe in lecture-style lessons.

We pride ourselves on a team of professional and friendly teachers and support staff who offer fast and professional service - essential ingredients for building good relationships.

General English Courses in Glasgow

English 16 - 99 years old

Each week, the lessons will cover the skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking) and the systems (grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation) of English. Many students find this a big change from how they studied English at school, where the focus was on grammar. However, you need to be strong in all the skills and systems – not just grammar – so our courses are balanced to reflect this.
