Miguel (Flexible English online course student)

“I had never taken English classes or any other language online, and I was pleasantly surprised by the course’s pedagogical quality, technical platform, organisation, and effectiveness. It is both a well-structured and enriching course. The classes are delightful and understandable, in a friendly and comfortable environment. I have enjoyed every class, especially the ‘breakout room’ discussions and the ‘feedback moment’ from teachers at the end of every class. The teachers are kind and supportive, and they share a lot of practical and helpful knowledge beyond the English textbook delivery. If you doubt it, you should try it!”

Martin (Flexible English online course student)

“I’m Martin Bocek from the Czech Republic and I’m a happy English Online student. I’m very happy, because I have had a great experience studying with English Online. You have great teachers! I’m blind and I’m using a screen reader and Braille display and I’m very happy with this. British Council’s English Online platform is great for me and I think, for all your students.”

Raffaella (Flexible English online course student)

“I came to the British Council’s English Online course because I realised that it was better for me to study from home and face a different teacher and classmates in each class. You helped me get back to learning English after a forced stop that risked me losing my learnings- but you managed to engage me! Both the course and payment options were flexible, with the ability to stop when I wanted. This course gave me the consistency in learning that I had lacked in recent years.”
