School Details - Warsaw
Our school in Warsaw has been a major force in English language teaching in Poland for 23 years. A PASE accredited language school, standards have always been a priority and thus the choice to become a Cambridge English Examination Centre in 2009 was a natural one. Since August 2013, the school has enjoyed Platinum Status and is now seeking to extend its respected Teacher Training Centre in the same manner.
The centre is fully equipped with everything that you will need to plan and teach your lessons - from computer, photocopying and reference facilities to practical items such as paper, markers and coursebooks.
We have two neighbouring venues, both a short walk (15 minutes) from the Warszawa Centralny train station. The first is on Sedziowska Street, a three level semi-detached building which houses the teacher's room and all of the facilities for CELTA. Our school boasts an excellent library with over 3,400 books, including multiple copies of key titles and this is housed on Sedziowska Street. A kitchen is also available if you want to prepare your own food - although the location of the school in downtown Warsaw means you are never short of lunch options!
