ELH NEWS AND VIEWS


Here you can see news, information and recommendations from the UK and/or Milton Keynes and/or English Language House:

CORONAVIRUS UPDATES AND RE-OPENING ELH
16/06/2020
We hope to re open our physical classrooms again from September 2020. Students can join our online lessons now if they wish or can join now for the September lessons in our physical classrooms and take advantage of our current promotional offers.  
When we re open there will be special safe 

CORONAVIRUS AND HOW TO STAY SAFE
20/03/2020
Coronavirus speads through droplets so people who carry the virus can pass it on very easily to other people. It is a new virus and people do not have immunity to this. The best way to stop the virus from spreading is to take precautions so that you are safe. If you catch the virus it is very important that you are looked after well and you do not pass it on to your family and friends. Please make sure you follow recommendations by Public Health England. 

LESSONS AT ELH
From Friday 20th March 2020 the UK Government will close all schools and English Language House will not run Face2Face classes at our premises in Central Milton Keynes until schools re-open again.  
We are encouraging all students to continue their learning virtually and we are reviewing the situation constantly so we can offer the best alternatives to everyone who wants to continue to learn. Since 2019 we have been offering e-learning courses which you can see here: https://www.elhuk.com/elh-online.html  but now we are also looking at offering live online classes via a virtual learning platform. We hope to start these next week. 
We believe that the best way forward once schools close in the UK is for students to continue to learn via a good virtual learning platform where they can meet their teachers and the other students, and continue to interact, support each other, and improve their English. 
If you would like to join us in our virtual lessons or learn independently using one of our e-learning courses please let us know.
In the meantime:

Staff from the British Council, EnglishUK and agents from abroad visited English Language House on 5th October 2017. Chris and Tatiana took them on a tour of the city and the surrounding countryside, showed them around our lovely building and  introduced them  to students and staff at ELH. The agents looked around the school, observed some lessons and had lunch with ELH students and staff.   

It was a beautiful, sunny day and we all had a lovely time. We hope our visitors enjoyed their day with us and will come back again soon.  

ENGLISH LANGUAGE HOUSE WAS AT STUDY WORLD IN SEPTEMBER 2017

Chis and Tatiana went to StudyWorld at the QEII in London in September 2017. They met many interesting people from all over the world and spoke to them about how fabulous it is to live and study in Milton Keynes.  

The QEII is an exhibition centre in Westminster and is very close to Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey.

ELH students filmed scenes from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet in February 2016
In 2016 we celebrated Shakespeare and ELH students filmed scenes from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.

ELH students met in February 2016 on Thursday 11th to find out more about Shakespeare and practice lines from his play "Romeo and Juliet". Then on Saturday 13th February 2016, students met for morning coffee and croissants at ELH and after a dress rehearsal in different locations students filmed some scenes from "Romeo and Juliet".  The video appeared in China and scenes can also be seen on the EnglishUK website.   
You can watch the scenes they filmed here...
