Frequently asked questions
6. Where do Embassy CES students come from?
Literally, from all around the world. When you study with Embassy CES, you can be sure of meeting and making friends with people from many different nations: we have been delighted to welcome students from more than 50 countries to our schools.
We try to ensure a good mix of nationalities in each of our classes. That means that there's less temptation to speak your own language! Meet some of our students here.
On the other hand, if your English isn't too good, and you're worried about communicating, relax. Our centres employ counsellors of many nationalities in case of emergencies or problems. And all our staff have many years of experience in looking after students and understanding even those with a low level of English. We will keep you safe.
