Location: Converse International School of Languages is in the Core-Columbia neighbourhood of San Diego. It is in the business district of the city, with tall office blocks. There are an eclectic mix of music venues in the area ranging from opera to blues. This reflects in the dining options and shops around Core-Colombia, which are plentiful and very different. The school is to the east of the area, on a major street, with lots of shops, restaurants, grocery stores and bars around.
Getting around: The 5th Avenue Tram Station is a 2-minute walk from the school. The orange, blue and silver lines run through this station. San Diego’s main train station is 16 minutes by foot, and 6 minutes via public transport away from Converse International School of Languages. As the school is centrally located within San Diego, it is very easy to walk around the core of the city by foot.
Major attractions: The city’s largest park, Balboa Park is a 15-minute walk from the school. Here, students can also visit the San Diego Air and Space Museum and The San Diego Museum of Art. The USS Midway Museum is in the San Diego Bay, close to the Ferry terminal and Broadway Pier. These are all 20 minutes by foot or 15 minutes by public transport.
Course structure: The school has a selection of general English lessons so students can pick the duration that fits their schedule. There are exam preparation courses for the IELTS, Cambridge, TOEFL and TOEIC exams. Specialist English courses are available to help students learn the specific language used in their particular career path such as business, engineering and aviation.
