1. Family-run School Established in 1955
St Giles International (St Giles) has been welcoming international students from all over the world who want to learn English since 1955.
With a history of almost 70 years, an astounding amount of experience for a language school, St Giles was honored in 2015 as a "Premier Enterprise" and was honored by Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace.
A family-run institution, the school is a rarity among language schools and students can enjoy a homey, family-like atmosphere.

3. Multiple Accommodation Options
St Giles offers many accommodation options to suit the preferences of every student.
Students can choose from homestay, allowing them to experience the local culture and lifestyle and giving them more opportunities to use English outside of the classroom; student residences, where they can live independently; or the more relaxing hotel stays popular with Platinum Course students.

St Giles has an e-Learning system that allows students to log into the St Giles e-School platform to check and complete the day's homework assignments and even view notes taken by the instructor during class.
The platform is an essential part of the study abroad program at St Giles as it also allows students to enroll in the social program.
This service is available before and after the study abroad program and is expected to be used for continuous English learning.
