Location: Kaplan International Languages, Edinburgh, is located in Edinburgh New Town. It is close to Queen Street Gardens, Moray Place Gardens and Dean Gardens. The school is just off Queen's Street, which is a prominent street in the city. There are cafes, shops and restaurants lining the streets around the school.
Getting around: Edinburgh Waverley is under 20 minutes from the school. From here, it is possible to visit other Scottish cities such as Glasgow and Aberdeen. There is an intricate tram system that runs through Edinburgh. The closest stop to the school is just over 13 minutes from the school. Many bus stops run through the New Town of the city.
Popular attractions: The school is centrally located within the capital city, making the main city attraction walkable. To the south is Edinburgh Castle, the Scottish National Gallery and the Royal Mile, all within a 20-minute radius circumference of the school. Arthur’s seat stands on Crow Hill, overlooking the city. It takes around 50 minutes to walk to the top, or there are various bus routes, which still involve some walking.
Course structure: There are general English programmes, exam preparation courses for Cambridge and IELTS exams, a business supplementary class, and semester and year long academic packages.
Edinburgh Festival Course: The Edinburgh Festival is an annual highlight for the city. Kaplan International Languages has designed a specific course that runs for two weeks around the festival. There are weekly English classes, and some after class activities that combine learning English and discovering more about the city’s famous festival.
School facilities: The modern classrooms all have interactive whiteboards. The building also has a cafeteria, a student lounge, study centre and free wifi throughout.

“Weekly lessons (a new topic each week). Varied exercises (written and oral comprehension, grammar, lots of interaction with other students, sometimes production of written work).”
“The classroom was a bit small, and oral exchanges (in groups of 2 or more) were sometimes difficult because of the noise in the room.”

“My experience at this school was short (only two weeks) but particularly eventful and exciting due to the fact that I met other international students with whom I felt comfortable. I think it is a matter of 'coincidences', but the school is definitely a prerequisite for this combination.”

More information about Edinburgh including climate data and events on our Edinburgh page with a list of all 11 English schools in Edinburgh.
Students working with Kaplan Edinburgh study 15 hours per week on improving their communicative skills for everyday and work-related situations using the school’s own methods and materials. Some of the skills you will be working on include: listening, fluency development, pronunciation, reading, grammar, writing, and vocabulary development.
The class sizes are small, and are usually attended by a diverse mix of nationalities. In this context, you’ll find it easy to communicate with your teacher as well as your peers, meaning that you quickly create an affinity with your group and achieve greater results as a consequence.
