About Regent's School of English

Intro

Regent's School of English is a British Council-accredited language school and an English UK member that has helped hundreds of students across 30 years. 

It was first established in 1994 as Internexus and gained accreditation in 1997. In 2008, Internexus was acquired by Regent’s College and in 2012 the College was granted university status, becoming Regent’s University London in 2013. 

Our English language teachers ensure your learning is always varied – with the chance to put your skills into practice with trips, walking tours and mini tests. 

With 62 different nationalities in the language centre and over 140 on the University campus, you will be a part of one of the most diverse universities in the UK – mixing with different cultures and making friends from all corners of the globe. 

While studying, you’ll have access to all that campus has to offer. Discover more.

Intro

At Regent’s we take a personal approach – identifying the support you need to thrive and tailoring our teaching to help you achieve your goals. 

You’ll learn in a supportive, personalised environment where staff and students get to know each other by name – ensuring you receive the personal attention needed to progress quickly. 

Intro

Studying at Regent's School of English, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to practise your English language skills in class, around campus and throughout London. 

Classes are fun and engaging with a focus on task-based activities that promote critical thinking, problem-solving and an understanding of British culture.  

As well as learning core academic skills, you’ll be taught how to put them into practice. You’ll do much more than worksheets: you’ll work in pairs and groups, take part in interactive activities, practise presentation skills, and develop accuracy and fluency across reading, listening, speaking and writing. Lessons are student-centred and make use of both coursebooks and authentic materials to help you apply English in real-world situations. 

*Outside the classroom, our weekly Conversation Club offers the chance to improve your fluency and boost your confidence by mixing with others. 

Plus, informal class trips take you on walking tours to London’s top sights like the River Thames, where you’ll test your language skills through mini challenges as you explore the city. 

*Outside the classroom activities are free of charge, with the exception of parties and social events run by the Student Union. Further information about these is available on the Student Union website. Students participating in the Friday trip are expected to cover the cost of transportation by bus or tube.
