Location: NCG - New College Group is to the east of the centre of Manchester, close to Piccadilly Gardens. It is just outside the Northern Quarter of the city, which has a bohemian feel with boutiques, restaurants and a selection of live music bars. The central retail district is a 10-minute walk from the school. The National Football Museum is also found in this area.

Getting around Manchester: The Piccadily Gardens Tram Stop is across the road from the school. The purple and blue line both run from this station. It reaches the centre of Manchester in five minutes. By foot, the centre of the city is 11 minutes. The school is in a good position for bus stations, for those who prefer to use this mode of transportation.

Things to do in Manchester: The Science and Industry Museum, Manchester Art Gallery and John Rylands Research Institute and Library are all located in the heart of Manchester. These are all around a 15-minutes walk from NCG. Old Trafford Football Stadium and IWM North Museum are both 30 minutes away by tram from the school.

Course structure: There are general group English courses in a selection of durations. Students can prepare for the IELTS exam as a package programme or attach it to a general English class. Business English is also available as an add on to a general English programme. NCG has private classes for those who prefer a more personalised experience with the teacher.

Junior programmes: The school runs young learner programmes throughout the summer months in another location from the main adult school building.

There is a school change fee of GBP 100, at the current time of writing, which is generally only charged if the student is currently studying with us.

The evaluations by students after they complete a course is excellent. The discount for using your website is also a great incentive. It also would be wonderful if the website would include more cities and a bigger selection of schools in each city.
Basil Havens verified client
The service of languagecourse.net is great, I booked already 3 schools and I can highly recommend it. In fact, I tell everybody I meet on my journey in South America about this website and how well everything is organized.
Gabriele Ragger verified client
I am very satisfied. I found more/relevant information on your webpage than on the school's website itself. It is the cheapest offer. I'm going to book my next course on your site soon.

Your service was excellent, really following up and holding my hand.! My older step-brother used your service a few years ago to study Spanish in Salamanca and Granada and we found LanguageCourse.Net so helpful then as well.

Just keep up the good work. The organization is excellent, so that even less experienced travellers would feel ok to come to China. I also felt really good in the host family, they were really great!
