English courses in Scotland

Our English courses at the teacher’s house in Scotland take place in some of the most interesting cities of this beautiful nation: Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Fort William, Glasgow, and Inverness.

Scotland has many treasures from big skies, architecture, spectacular wildlife, strong culture, excellent seafood, beers, warm, down-to-earth people and of course some of the best whiskies in the world.

Many who travel to the wild, windswept highlands of Scotland do so for the impressive and breathtaking landscapes. Scotland has some of the largest wilderness areas left in Western Europe. Whether you travel to remote areas, small towns or cities you will always find strong traditions and a rich history with hundreds of castles around.

Scotland is today a very dynamic nation with a gross domestic product (GDP) per capita higher than in all other areas of the United Kingdom outside London and England’s eastern regions.
