I am a current Commercial Foreign Language student in Bonn, Germany. During my last semester, I was presented with the opportunity to apply for a two months internship in Germany or study abroad. I enjoy travelling and meeting new places, and without thinking twice, I decided to study abroad in London.

For most people, it is difficult to go by themselves to a new place where they do not know anyone; but for me, it was a challenge I was willing to take to increase my job experience, meet new people, learn about other cultures and improve my abilities in speaking and understanding the English language.

I am now working for Crest Schools of English and I really enjoy my job as a receptionist. I have come to meet wonderful students from all over the world and I have been lucky enough to work with an excellent work crew that makes working very enjoyable. During this internship, I have learned to understand different accents and to speak fluently on the phone.

… And you won’t need to pay for three years at university!

It’s true! We can offer you an opportunity to gain a university degree in the UK without the huge expenses.

Britain has some of the best universities in the world but degree courses are notoriously expensive for international students. It can also be an intimidating experience for students who feel less than confident in their English language skills.

Crest Schools of English has a perfect solution.

Our CTH Tourism and Hospitality Management Programmes last for one year and are recognised by several universities in Britain as being equivalent to the first year or first two years of a university degree. This means that successful graduates can be accepted onto the second or even final year of a relevant degree programme.

This means that successful candidates can earn a full University Degree in the UK for a fraction of the price.
