enrollment date

These classes are for post-foundation students, age 8 to 16.

Our focus is on developing children’s English, but our unique methodology gives the children much more than this.

The Literacy course is a cross-curricular approach to language development. This means that language acquisition and development are built into Humanities and Science topics taught in UK schools. The learning is hands-on and highly engaging, so students develop their cognitive and creative abilities alongside their English.

It is our mission to teach children to read, write, and speak English while learning about the wonders of our world

Testimonials

We are grateful for the kind words from the parents of the hundreds of children who already attended ESB.

We have three children attending ESB. With each year they enjoy the classes more; the child-centred methodology builds their confidence, through the engaging, thematic and group activities, they gain a taste of the British educational system and enjoy its advantages. The small group sizes and the warm relationships between teachers and students create a calm, positive atmosphere for them. We all appreciate the school programmes and events as well as the teachers’ structured approach to learning.

Samu started attending ESB 6 months ago. He was a complete beginner at the time. Now he speaks in sentences and has a vocabulary of several hundred words. In six months he’s made incredible progress, while also having fun and making new friends.

Orsolya

mother of Samu

Our daughter was a little shy when joining ESB, having had very basic English – but she liked the classes from the first moment. After 5 months she is making steady progress and starts to be able to express herself. ESB seems to create good motivation for them and the various activities built around the themes covered keep the children’s interest.
