Information about Aberdeen

Why Aberdeen? Aberdeen is known as the Silver City because of the splendid granite buildings and is famous for its lovely parks, gardens and flowers. The city, and in fact the whole area of Aberdeenshire, is a golfer's dream with a vast selection of courses to choose from. There are a high number of whiskey distilleries in Aberdeen to sample this famous Scottish beverage. Aberdeen rests on the coast and there are viewing spots along the waterfront as the area is known for dolphins and if you are very lucky basking sharks! As you can see there are heaps of things to do for individuals as well as families, and everyone will enjoy the city's Amusement Park!

Q&A - Questions about English courses and schools in Aberdeen

I would like to take an English course in Aberdeen, Scotland.

“At present (2023) we do not work with any English language schools in Aberdeen, but we are able to offer private courses in a teacher's home.

This type of programme not only teaches you a language, but also gives you the chance to live with a local person. Living in the teacher's home means that you will have to speak the language of the country you are visiting at all times, even when the lessons are over. These personalised lessons will allow you to progress faster than ever before.

If you need more details, please contact us.”

Are there any group courses available for juniors in Aberdeen?

“At the moment we do not partner with any schools which offer group courses for juniors in Aberdeen.
There is an option of private tuition with accommodation at the teacher's home offered by Home Language International - HLI.”

Gosia Mazur, LanguageCourse.Net - Apr 21, 2023

I am 57 years old lady with a young spirit and would like to improve my English. I can stay in Aberdeen for 2 weeks in September. I like better morning lessons (3 hours a day).

“Study & Live in your Teacher's Home, Aberdeen, is a fantastic way to get the tailor-made experience and tuition that are often appreciated by more mature students. Lessons are one-to-one, with the material being prepared to meet a students' needs. Meals are also shared with your teacher, allowing for an authentic and unique learning experience.”

Don't just take our word for it

100,000+ happy clients since 1999

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.

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.

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.

You're just great, doing a fantastic job. I'll be back in a couple of weeks and be booking my next stay abroad with you again (as always).

I was really surprised with your assistance to me, the service was amazing, following me on every step, thank you!

The service received has been fantastic. All doubts and issues were solved quickly and effectively. An exceptional service.

Your service was excellent . You helped me to choose exactly the right course for me .

I had excellent support with the school choice and booking. I was grateful knowing that if a problem arose, I had someone to liaise with the school and sort it out. Many thanks

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.

I genuinely rate the enrolment service five stars as it exceeded my expectations - everything that was booked worked out flawlessly, and queries were responded to with minimal delay. Ana Carolina was great - thanks!

Everything was perfect. Fast and efficient help. Kindness and support from start to finish. Thanks a lot!

Excellent support. In particular, Ana Carolina is amazing and goes out of her way to help. I have called upon Ana in the past and will do so in the future. I am genuinely grateful. Thank you Ana!

Sabine was FANTASTIC! Very complete communication all along the process!

Ana Carolina dos Santos was amazing. Always kind and available, she solved all my doubts.

Sawsan was amazing throughout the booking process. Was extremely helpful and attentive and professional.

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!
