Lewis School of English

Lewis School of English

48 years of quality teaching! Our friendly and attentive staff are dedicated to each individual’s experience and growth - and with this in mind we strive to bring freshness, sense of purpose, warmth and care to their educational experience.

Main school
Our main school is open all year round for adults (ages 16+) and junior groups (ages 8+). We’re located right in the centre of Southampton, a vibrant university city on England’s south coast, 75 minutes from London. Southampton is famous for cruise ships and the Titanic, and is full of beautiful parks, one of which is opposite our school.
We offer homestay accommodation with local hosts, all personally selected, and there are plenty of residential and hotel options within a short walk of the school, too.

Summer centres
In the summer, we run two junior centres – a homestay-based centre at our main school in Southampton and a residential centre at the University of Winchester. The age range is 11-17 and both groups and individuals are welcome. In Winchester, we offer an English and Theatre course as well as our Classic Summer Programme.

Specialist areas
We specialise in English through theatre and teacher training, and have arranged many projects with schools and organisations around the world. Courses can be tailored to your students’ needs, and can be delivered here in the UK, online, or with us visiting your country.

Online courses
Live and interactive online courses are available for both individuals and groups. As well as English programmes, we offer creative options such as our popular storytelling course (groups only). We also provide online teacher training programmes that combine self-study with live sessions and collaborative tasks.

We look forward to working with you and to welcoming you to our school!
